Topics include:
✔️ Coping with a new diagnosis

✔️ Accessing local resources
✔️ Living a meaningful, connected life

Whether you or a loved one has recently been diagnosed, this space offers connection, information, and hope.

Join us for Bumps & Babies on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday every month starting June 4th from 10:30am to 11:30am in the Children’s Department.

Bumps & Babies is a support group that provides a safe, compassionate space for individuals navigating the emotional and physical challenges of pregnancy and the postpartum period. Members can share experiences, receive encouragement, and connect with others facing similar struggles, such as anxiety, depression, or the joys and adjustment to parenthood.

The group is often facilitated by a trained professional and may include resources on mental health, self-care, and infant care. It’s a place to feel seen, supported, and less alone during a deeply transformative time.

The Bumps & Babies program is in partnership with Community Concepts, WIC Maine, Western Maine Community Action, Maine Families and Public health Nursing.

Free. No registration required. Siblings are welcome.

For more information contact the Children’s Department at (207) 513-3503, LPLKids@lewistonmaine.gov

Is your eating out of control? Overeaters Anonymous can help. There are no dues or fees or weigh ins.This is not a diet club, but a fellowship of people recovering from compulsive overeating, anorexia, bulimia or other food related behaviors that rule our lives. The mutual support and 12 step recovery offered provide hope and a path for recovery from this life disabling condition.

The School Support Circle is an opportunity for any school staff to find support, brainstorm new ideas, problem solve, & connect with OUT Maine and each other.

Feel free to join each month or just once.

Note: this is a collaborative space, not an OUT Maine training.
