Meet the Facilitator
Jen Thompson
Our Babies, Our Grief holds a special place in Jen's heart ever since she gave birth prematurely to 2 beautiful baby girls, Lydia Marie and Ella Ruth. Both of her babies died as a result of the premature birth, and she remembers desperately searching for support within her community and not being able to find anything.
Our Babies, Our Grief was exactly what she needed back then to help her process her grief and begin to heal, which is why she is thrilled to be able to bring this kind of support to her community now.
