Parents Anonymous Groups provide parent mutual support and parent leadership in order to build and support strong, safe families.

What is a Parents Anonymous Group?
Parents, a Parent Leader, and a Staff Facilitator gather together on a weekly basis for group discussion and support.  Parents determine topics discussed based on their needs.  Group members support each other through listening and discussion.

Effective mutual support: Parents give and receive support from each other thereby creating a strong sense of community, belonging and trust
