We know that it is the power of parents connecting to parents that help families the most. The Parent Network has been instrumental in connecting with other parents through the Daily Herald's Suburban Parent column. Many of our  parents have generously shared their personal stories and valuable insights helping families all over the area.

We invite you to join us. Come meet other members in the Parent Network. We will take this opportunity to brainstorm new topics that might be useful for families just starting out and learn about topics of particular interest to you.

If there is a parent that you think might be interested in joining the Parent Network, please invite them along.
