The Divorce 101 Meetup Group provides an excellent forum for those considering a divorce, those in the midst of a divorce, or those already divorced to converse with others regarding their experiences during this difficult time. Group meetings will create a unique opportunity for members to meet local individuals in similar situations, in a friendly and inviting atmosphere hosted by Chicagoland family law attorney, Jonathan Merel.

Our group exists for single parents AND their children. You must be a SINGLE parent. Single means divorced, widowed, or never married in the first place. We get together primarily for activities WITH our children. We may have adults-only events as well, but most of the events will be with the kids. We are NOT a dating group. We welcome you to join us! If you have ideas for meetups, please let us know. We welcome anyone in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.

You've read all the books on being a Stepmom, but nothing can replace the presence of warm bodies and real support. Our goal here at Stepmoms Plus is to foster a group of women who share this similar background of being in a committed relationship with a Dad that meets regularly to support, encourage, inform, and have fun. While venting is an important element of a support group, members should know this group will not be a place to unload frustrations only. We will seek to provide positive solu …

I created this meetup group in an attempt to connect with lesbians of Chicago who are not fully "out of the closet" so to speak. I want to create a support network for women who lead heterosexual lifestyles (i.e. married, divorced, separated, dating, single) but who are looking to open up and enjoy who they are with women in similar situations. I want us to have the opportunity to enjoy who we are and be comfortable in our own skin! Who wants to join me? :-)

The group will help you: Explore your thoughts and feelings about being a stepmom in an open, confidential environment; Improve relationships with your current spouse, stepchildren and other family members; and …

Having lost my husband to cancer seven years ago, I realise how important it is to get support from other people who have lost a husband or a wife, either because they passed away or through a divorce. I hope to form a close group of men and women who will always find a sympathetic person willing to lend an ear when needed. I intend to organise a variety of meetings such as dinners, cocktails, or just coffee, tea and yummy desserts.

I am starting this group for other women like myself who are dealing with a recent divorce, menopause, anxiety, depression, etc. Often when we are going through life changing experiences we try and do what Power wives and Moms do ('Man-Up') and act as though everything is fine. At some point and time that act comes to a CLOSE and we Crash and Burn! We then feel trapped, alone, misunderstood and confined within our own minds and hearts. I know because I have been and STILL CONTINUE to endure some …

This is a group for single moms age 23-33. The reason I put an age restriction is so that we are all able to relate to one another, which is hard when there's a big age gap. My friend Angelia and I wanted to start a group for women like us, single moms, living in the city, who know how hard it is to raise a child on our own, financially, socially and emotionally. It doesn't matter if you are divorced, never married, if the dad is present or not, the purpose of this group is to provide a way for …
