Pregnancy and Early Infant Loss Support Groups

 

Footprints in the Field

  • Footprints in the Field is a pregnancy and infant loss remembrance garden, located in Boalsburg, PA. It provides a place for families to honor and remember their children. The garden also includes a place for families to dedicate river rocks to their babies. The rocks are engraved to honor a baby and then placed in the Garden or taken home by the family. While Footprints in the Field does not have pre-scheduled events to provide support, they encourage people to reach out if they are interested in a local support group or event or if there is another way that Footprints in the Field can help them navigate their loss.
