Parenting Classes and Programs

The Healthy Families Parent Education programs provide a supportive environment for parents and children to explore, play and learn together and apart. Our programs offer a wide variety of workshops and classes focused on all stages of development – from prenatal to the often-challenging teen years.

Most parenting learning opportunities are available to the general public. Our evening classes offer dinner as well as programs for children and youth. It is our desire to support parents' efforts to create satisfying and successful family relationships. We invite you to join one of our classes or workshops and share with us the joys and–– challenges of being a parent in today's world.
