SUMMARY:Seattle - Adjusting to Parenthood
DESCRIPTION:Adjusting to Parenthood is meeting virtually! Join us. No registration required – simply follow this link on Fridays at 11:30: https://zoom.us/j/92374601864 \nThis is a new mom support group\, offering additional support for the emotional changes and challenges of adapting to parenthood. Becoming a new parent can be overwhelming\, and it often takes time to adjust to changing roles and unfamiliar experiences. Good support can help ease the transition\, especially if it provides a place for new mothers to come together and express the reality of how hard parenthood can be. Adjusting to Parenthood is a place for women to feel heard and to be honest about the highs and lows of motherhood. It offers a supportive environment in which the full range of postpartum experiences is welcomed\, and the everyday realities of being a new mom are understood. \nAt the end of each group\, we offer a 15-minute question and answer on infant feeding\, infant development\, and infant and adult mental health. Come and get your questions answered! The group is appropriate for any mother who needs support to vent\, to process\, to hear other women’s stories\, and to learn that she is not alone. Expectant moms and moms with babies in arms are welcome. We have toys and space for crawlers and walkers and we welcome moms of older kiddos (up to 2 years) but we do not have separate childcare. \nNo Fee while we are meeting virutally

SUMMARY:Group Peer Support (GPS) Facilitator Training
DESCRIPTION:This 2.5 day training is open to experienced and first time group leaders. Providers of services to ALL parents are invited to participate in this training. \nGPS Group Peer Support© is an evidence-informed group model that will give you the map to support parents in your community. GPS for Parents© is an empowering group experience that provides a place for parents to address the challenges they face\, hear from others on the path\, gain perspective and strength\, and chart a course through challenging times. \nThis model can be used in a wide variety of settings including those running postpartum support groups\, breast/chest feeding groups\, psychoeducational groups for parents with kids 0-3\, for families in the NICU\, perinatal loss groups\, and any group in which parents are asked to share and listen. \nPlease know that this is a highly interactive and participatory training.  Learning to create and hold a group space requires learning what it is feels like to be in community with one another and be present.  Learners should plan to be at the whole training\,  video on for interactive portions\, with limited multi-tasking.  In our busy world\, and with online trainings\, it can be very tempting to think that we can do more than one thing.
