For anyone who is not familiar with The Tiny Miracles Foundation, it is a local non-profit that supports families who experience the premature birth of a child. You may participate in their programs, all free of charge, at any time (you need not have an infant...many preemie questions/concerns occur well after the time your baby has left the NICU). Anne is a wonderful, compassionate presenter. Parents will feel comfortable addressing their concerns/hopes in this meeting, and it's a nice opportunity to connect with other local parents who understand what you may be going through as the parent of a preemie.
