MOMENTS support group
Supporting families
MOMENTS is a support group specifically designed for caregivers of children with complex medical conditions, and provided in partnership with Better2gether RVA. We provide a safe, nurturing and supportive community for the many defining moments you experience while caring for a child who needs medical care. Caregivers have opportunities to connect through workshops, speakers and other educational opportunities. Your child does not have to receive services at Children's Hospital of Richmond at VCU to be part of the support group.
