For any and all parents. We are in partnership with the Village Circle. The difference we have from Village Circle is we are all genders, and welcome couples and dads. You don’t need to be a new parent, as we have parents with many older children as well. The only qualification is that you are a parent, are human, and have hard feelings sometimes that could use a safe container to be expressed.
