No parent should feel alone! At Family Paths, we care deeply about you and our community. We understand that accessing services can be challenging, whether due to waiting lists, financial constraints, or simply navigating the process.  Our pop-up workshops are offered periodically to provide general information and education, not intended to diagnose, treat, or manage mental health conditions.
Led by Otis Ward, a Certified Positive Discipline Parent Educator and our Outreach Manager, parents will leave these workshops with tips, tools, resources and the comfort that you are not alone.
Topics include: Self-Care, Stress Management and Financial Literacy. If interested in signing up to get notified when the next workshop will take place, please contact Otis Ward at oward@familypaths.org.
Workshops will be announced on Family Paths’ socials – Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.
