CIRCLe GROUP - Parents of gifted children

A Parenting Circle Group is a facilitated support group model that is designed to strengthen families. Weekly circle group meetings are attended by parents who want to exchange ideas, share information, develop and practice new parenting skills, learn about community resources, and give and receive support. This may include biological parents, adoptive parents, foster parents, grandparents, kinship caregivers, etc.

Next start date will be announced soon. Our introductory circle groups are typically held on Wednesdays, 7:30 - 8:30 pm. We will meet bi-weekly for 8 weeks. Only 10 spots available.
