St. Louis Heart to Heart Group

The St. Louis Heart to Heart Group welcomes you to our website. We are an informal organization comprised of families with children who have congenital heart defects. The group formed in 1988 to support our children and families as well as to educate ourselves about congenital heart disease. The group holds a monthly meeting, with a formal presentation, the first Wednesday of every month, from 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm at St. Louis Children's Hospital. All are invited to attend. In addition, a family networking service is available to connect families together.

The group is not officially affiliated with St. Louis Children's Hospital, however, the Hospital has generously supported us by providing a meeting room, distributing the mailing list and providing a social worker to assist the group.

We developed this website to provide information about the group, to offer educational informaion about congenital heart disease and to welcome all families to participate in the group.

Please join us for our next monthly meeting or call the group's social worker, Melissa Bruder, MSW, at (314) 454-6000 to learn more about the group.
