For over 50 years, AMEND Pregnancy Loss Support Group has been part of the Tampa Bay community, offering support to parents who have experienced the devastating loss of a baby. 

Our group welcomes parents who have experienced an early miscarriage, a full-term stillbirth, or the loss of a baby within the first month after birth. We believe the goal of grief support is not to fix broken hearts, but to create a place where parents never have to hide them. Here, parents can share, grieve, and connect with others who understand this unique kind of loss. You do not have to walk through pregnancy loss alone, and you are welcome to attend at any point in your grief journey.

Pregnancy loss affects both parents, yet fathers' grief is often unseen or overlooked. At AMEND, we believe every parent's loss matters. Led by Jaci (Perinatal Mental Health Therapist, RCSWI) and David, who have experienced pregnancy loss themselves, the group offers support and understanding for both mothers and fathers.

Please contact Jaci at jaci10perez@gmail.com. Meetings will be held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month, at 7pm. We have an email list and private facebook group, for event announcements, so please check there or contact one of us, before coming.

About the leaders: 
Jaci & David’s desire to support families navigating pregnancy loss comes from both their personal experience with loss and Jaci’s professional training as a Master of Social Work. As a perinatal mental health therapist (RCSWI) specializing in pregnancy loss, Jaci brings both clinical knowledge and the understanding that comes from walking this path herself.
