“Parents in the Know” Learning Series
It’s a big world out there, especially online. Do we really know where our children go when they venture into the web? Learn what to look out for, what questions to ask, and how to protect your children. Learn how to filter and block for their protection and understand current issues on social media. We hope you will join us! Teens are encouraged to attend with their caregiver. Registration is not required. Come to one class or come to them all.

Circle of Security Parenting Program Postponed!
New dates will be announced once confirmed. Thank you for your patience.
At times all parents feel lost or without a clue about what our child might need from us. Imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you. The Circle of Security Parenting™ program is based on decades of research about how secure parent-child relationships can be supported and strengthened.
