MU Extension support group
Are you an expecting or postpartum parent or caregiver in Bates, Vernon, Barton, or Cedar County looking for a supportive, judgment-free space where others truly understand what you're experiencing? Are you a perinatal provider seeking trusted social support resources to share with families?
We’re excited to offer a free, welcoming resource for pregnant and postpartum families in our rural Missouri communities. Our groups provide connection, encouragement, and a place to share real experiences with others navigating pregnancy, breastfeeding, and early parenting.
