Online Group: Surviving Step-Parents
July 28, 2025
This group meets the 4th Monday of the month at 8 p.m. Eastern.
We request you sign up at least 24 hours before you attend your first session so that we can ensure the integrity of the group and answer any questions you may have. Sign up is required only once!
The fourth Monday of each month is a time to gather with your peers. This support group is dedicated to step-parents who have endured the profound loss of a step-child. It creates a safe and compassionate environment for stepparents as they navigate their grief and healing in this unique role. Together, we provide mutual support, share our experiences, and discover ways to manage the complexities of grief while honoring the memory of our stepchildren. Most importantly, our focus is on healing and moving forward, all while celebrating the lives of our loved ones — allowing us to “Remember the love, celebrate the life, and share the journey.”

What to Expect
Online groups are peer-led, facilitated sessions where there’s never pressure to share, but always an opportunity. Whether you attend once or regularly, you will always be welcomed. We value the importance of knowing that there are “places” we can show up and feel supported and inspired, and you can decide to connect with us every week or whenever it’s convenient or compelling.
Please remember that, while we anticipate that these groups will become engaging, encouraging community gathering “places,” you never have to wait if you need to talk. We’re always here for you, 24 hours, 7 days a week, year-round, at 800-959-TAPS (8277).
