Make New Friends and Keep the Old: EPLA Collaboration Efforts

By Maria Servold EPLA Editor

As the Early Pregnancy Loss Association has grown over the past few years, we have made an effort to develop and maintain collaborations with other groups. We’re proud to pursue our mission of serving women suffering early pregnancy loss, but we’re also proud to work with other groups to further our missions together. 

One such group is Metro Detroit Share, a regional branch of the national group Share, which provides support for pregnancy and infant loss. Since 2020, we have worked with Metro Detroit Share to include our early pregnancy loss kits in bags they provide to women suffering miscarriage all over the greater Metro Detroit area. 

Recently, we provided another 500 small loss kits to MDS.This brings our total to 1,500 kits distributed to MDS in less than three years. The group’s director, Angie Winton, came to Hillsdale with a truck and a trailer to pick up all the kits - for which we are so grateful!

(And a special thanks to the Stockdale kids for all their help!)
