Letter from Will

Dear Parenting Place Friend, 

Does this sound familiar?  "The Parenting Place has been a sanity saver for me.  I so look forward to Thursday, when I can get out of the house and experience some camaraderie with other new mothers going through similar struggles and joys.  The advise on everything from childcare to feeding and sleeping has been invaluable."  -Parenting Place Mom

We are currently reviewing and evaluating progress on our strategic plan with the help of our Board, Parent Advisory Council, and staff.  It is a process of rethinking our direction, examining the challenges that are out there and refocusing on our mission.  Parenting Place's mission hasn't really changed over the years, but how we state it has.

Parenting Place works with families to become more self-reliant in the areas that affect family stability.  It is clear and concise.  Thank you for your continued support of our mission.  As always, your donations are critical to providing these programsWill&Kids

 

Sincerely,

Will Kropp, Executive Director
