In 2022 I created a support group for mothers suffering with loneliness in my community. The group is called, Moms Making Community, and focuses on stay at home moms and working moms connecting while hosting playdates. The group allows for mothers to create friendship, gather avice, and gain support. I run the social media page, host a meeting weekly, and facilitate group discussions.
