Parents are often under a great deal of stress when raising their children. Parent Partners provide support for those moms or dads in need of a little extra support and someone to talk to.  Parents involved with the Parent Partner program are matched with a trained volunteer who will be there to help and support the parent through a difficult time.  A Parent Partner may be someone to share a coffee, talk on the phone, or accompany a parent to a school meeting or other appointments.  The parent in need and the parent partner will jointly define their dynamic based on the needs and wishes of the parent.

“You have done more for my family than I could think or ask.  I am happy and thankful to live in a city where the people are so caring and loving of others.  Bless you.” - Parent
