The organization, which was founded in New Jersey in 2003, currently has more than 115 chapters across the United States.  “A majority of today’s moms say that pregnancy inspired a shift to green living, and three quarters of Americans seek out some form of alternative medicine,” says Massotto, “so we’re seeing a surge of interest in our organization.” 

Moms, dads, grandparents, partners, and other caregivers are all welcome to join.  The Rockford Chapter meets on the third Wednesday of each month at the Just Goods Store in Rockford and welcomes volunteer guest speakers on a variety of holistic lifestyle topics.  For more information, please visit the Holistic Moms Network website at www.holisticmoms.org or contact the organization at (877) HOL-MOMS.
