"Stories of..." Seminars
"Stories of..." Seminars offer a chance to network, socialize, ask questions of those who have been through infertility and/or adoption and provide additional emotional support.
Each month will cover a new topic with speakers sharing their personal stories. This free seminar is open to the public.
Lifelong friendships start here!
