 Family Connections Group

A new group offering space for caregivers to come together to talk and learn from one another. Caregivers will have an opportunity to meet other caregivers to share and support each other in our daily struggles. The goal is that caregivers feel supported and valued while connecting with other caring community members. 

Family Connection will take place once a month - dates and times will be specific to your child’s school.

We know you’re here because you want the absolute best for your child, and we believe you are the expert on what’s needed to get there. ABC Head Start Society’s Family Engagement philosophy centers on parents and caregivers as the child’s first and primary teachers. We attend to the unique gifts of each child in the context of their family and community, and we offer support and education to help each family reach their full potential.  

All parents and caregivers are welcome to take part in our parent education courses and workshops. These sessions offer a variety of skill-building opportunities that will help your family achieve goals and build resilience!
