Speakers and group leaders from the Fort Collins Family Medicine Center, Larimer County Cooperative Extension Service, and other organizations will help in conducting the groups and programs. The overall goal of the program is to help women maintain the positive behavior changes they make during pregnancy and to develop peer social support systems. It is very helpful for women to be able to talk with others who are experiencing similar problems. Another major goal of the program is to make it easy and convenient for the moms to participate. The grant will help provide for transportation such as bus coupons.
Women can join the group at any time during their pregnancies.
The support groups are free of charge.
