Retreats for mothers whose children are parented by others.

We’re a community that hears, validates and supports your unique story.

Retreats

At Bellis, we’ve developed the Stronger Together Peer Support Model.™ We’ve learned that empathy — sharing your story with someone who accepts you completely — is transformative.

This reflects the heart of the Stronger Together retreats, exclusively for women whose children are parented by others.

Stronger Together Day Retreat: This gathering on Sunday, April 14, in the western suburbs of Minneapolis, is an annual opportunity to gather in friendship and healing conversations. Guests will find fireplaces, and spa-like settings make this a true day of rejuvenation and comfort. This retreat is guided by licensed professionals and welcoming to all experiences. Register here.

Stronger Together Weekend Retreat: Check back for details about the 11th annual weekend retreat, always held the third weekend of September at a lakeside location in Minnesota. Who does the retreat serve? Read more here.

If your grief needs tending now, please use our Stronger Together Support Line™ by calling or texting 833-4BELLIS (833-423-5547).

To be cared for and loved on throughout this weekend is so appreciated. The time to focus on myself, my healing, and my journey is invaluable. To be with others who get it and to just be me.
