As a new school year begins, we know schedules are quickly filling with different start dates, school routines, and extracurricular activities across our local districts. We are praying for each family as you settle into this new season!
While we will be available during the first week of August, our regular weekly gatherings at Mt. Rachel Baptist Church will officially begin on August 10.
Throughout August, we will be offering:
* Two office hour sessions where parents and caregivers can meet with us individually for support, resources, or to pick up needed supplies.
* One community play date, providing a welcoming space where children can enjoy time together while parents and caregivers build meaningful friendships, encourage one another, and find community with others who understand their journey.
* Our first Parent Connect of the year, featuring a representative from SEEDS. SEEDS is a program designed to strengthen early learning classroom practices by equipping educators with evidence-based strategies that support the developmental success of all children, including those with disabilities and those who exhibit challenging behaviors.
Meet with other parents for resources and support! First and third Tuesday of every month.
This series is comprised of interactive sessions with each week focusing on a new place or cultural activity, while incorporating storytelling, music, poetry writing, and/or a simple craft. Each session will include a follow-up message filled with tips, activities, and recipes for families to continue to enjoy after the virtual trip. The focus of each group is to explore a new world, experience a variety of engaging opportunities, and enjoy a sense of camaraderie and community.
