Welcome to Parents'
Place!
Our mission
is to promote a community commitment to healthy parenting and to
strengthen and enhance families to ensure the well-being of children.
Parents' Place
is a family resource center developed in 1987 by a group of community
advocates sharing a commitment to healthy parenting and the building
of strong families. We foster the development of parenting skills
and personal esteem through parent
support groups, informational services and parenting
classes. Our programs include transition services for area high
schools for pregnant/parenting-in-school youth, as well as maternity
support services.
Words from Woodland
Union Familiar is our Spanish-speaking group in Woodland that meets to celebrate all sorts of occasions, along with American holidays and other special days. They meet at the Casa San Juan Diego each Wednesday from 11:30 am to 2:00 pm.
The Tuesday Woodland group has started a coupon exchange and will be learning sign language and ‘Nifty Knitting’ techniques. The year will end with a ‘chocolate exchange.”
If you are in the Woodland area, join us at 10:30 Tuesdays. Call Laura at 225-3612 for time & place.
