    Birth Mom Dinners

    The internet can be a really valuable place to connect. But we’re also big fans of face-to-face meet-ups. That’s why we host dinners. Every spring and fall we host Birth Mom Dinners across the country. These are sweet and simple events that connect birth moms locally and allow women to be reminded that they’re not alone.
