I haven't found one nearby, so these forums are my group for the moment!

Our agency didn't have one at the time while we were waiting, so we formed our own with a couple (that ended up just the 4 or us) while waiting which was the BEST thing we did during the wait. It helped to have someone who was experiencing the same things at the same time who could understand all our feelings. We ended up having several more things in common, and now our kids are playmates and e-pals whenever we can get them together.

It is a small dream of mine to volunteer to start/work with one at the agency we used some day.
