These groups are not support groups, but a chance to connect with others who can relate to the journey of miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal loss, SIDS or infertility. They are for adults who have experienced the loss of a pregnancy or infant and who would like to connect with others in a casual and social environment.
Tea, Connect & Chat: Tarot Night for Social Connection
Join us for a cozy evening of tea, conversation, and connection. This gathering offers a warm and welcoming space to slow down, reflect, and share meaningful moments with others in the community.
Each participant will have the opportunity for a one-to-one reading with our Tarot card reader, who will use the cards’ symbolism as a gentle tool for personal reflection and insight. The experience is not about prediction, but about exploring thoughts, perspectives, and possibilities in a supportive way.
Beyond your individual reading, there will also be time to connect with others—sharing stories, reflections, and community warmth over a comforting cup of tea.
What to Expect:
● Guided Use of Tarot: Explore personal insights prompted by the cards in a one-to-one reading
● Supportive Environment: A non-judgmental space for connection, community & open
conversation with those that get it
● Tea & Light Refreshments: Enjoy a cozy atmosphere where you can connect or simply relax in quiet.
This event is free and focused on community and connection. Feel free to bring a friend and help us spread the word about our centre. Connect with us and discover a different way to start conversations!

FAQ
What to expect at a PILSC peer support group
A hybrid group is a peer support group that gives you the option of attending in person at the PILSC office in downtown Calgary or attending virtually on Zoom for those living outside of Calgary and for anyone who prefers to attend virtually.
Your hybrid group will have a designated facilitator for those who attend in person and the second facilitator will be supporting the group on Zoom. We have technology called Meeting Owl that allows for a seamless interaction experience between those attending in person and those who attend virtually.

For our 7-Week Groups, we require that all participants attend either the first or second session and as many sessions as possible to allow for a safe and consistent group environment. That being said, life happens and let us know if you are unable to attend a session by emailing info@pilsc.org.
As with all of our services at PILSC, we believe in the importance of removing barriers to accessing services. All of our groups are offered at no cost to participants. For those who have the means and ability to help support the centre and our groups programming, we graciously accept donations: https://pilsc.org/donate-to-pilsc
All of our online groups are open for anyone to attend anywhere in the world. Some of our groups that meet in person will have a hybrid option so you can attend any group virtually, regardless of your physical location.
You will receive a confirmation email from the Jane booking system and the day before your group you will receive an email welcoming you to your group. For 7-week groups, there are forms to fill out in the Jane booking system so please fill those out as we require your mailing information to send you materials for your group.
Yes, you are welcome to attend a group more than once. Every time you attend will be different because so much is determined by the people in a group with you. We also have various monthly groups that you can try after an 7-week group to meet others who have experienced.
We are dedicated to supporting individuals of all faiths, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and gender identities. In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
