Time Out for Parents

July 12th, 2010

The FRC is pleased to announce a NEW program: Time Out for Parents!

A respite program that provides parents of children, ages 0 – 5 years old, with a way to stay CALM, COOL, and CONNECTED.

Join us every Wednesday, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm, in a safe and nurturing environment where children can play, learn, and socialize while parents relax and take some time for themselves. This is a great way to connect with other parents, share ideas, and develop peer support. Both mothers and fathers are encouraged to participate. Parents must remain on the premises.
