Parent Support and Education

 

CFS presents popular parenting groups throughout NH

When they’re born, children don’t typically come with a “How to Avoid the Challenges of Raising Your Child” guide.  And as of yet, we haven’t found the definitive tome on “How to Be a SuperMom or Dad,”  “How to Raise the Perfect Human Being” or “How to Know How to Do Everything and Always Be Loved, Respected and Above Reproach.”

That’s why Child and Family Services of NH presents several parent education and support series throughout our communities.  Some series focus on parenting a pre-teen, others focus on parenting your grandchildren, while others focus on the unique parenting challenges of nontraditional families.  While each group may target a different population, they also serve different needs…some providing parenting skills education and others providing peer support and opportunities for leadership.  Sometimes, the difference between workshops lies in the curriculum.
