So many opportunities for kids and families happening this month!! These events are great ways to connect with other families and experts for support and community building!🩷

💜 Find your village. Build your community. Strengthen your family.

Whether you're a new parent, navigating toddlerhood, looking for play opportunities, seeking emotional support, or simply hoping to meet other families who understand the journey, peer-to-peer connections can reduce isolation, build confidence, and create a stronger community for children and families.

We're fortunate to have a growing number of opportunities for moms, dads, caregivers, and young children throughout Coös County and neighboring communities. From playgroups and parent circles to support groups and family gatherings, there are many ways to connect.

Check out the latest Groups & Gatherings for Parents & Families guide below and consider joining a group near you. You never know when a simple conversation, shared experience, or new friendship might make all the difference 🌻
