We are in need of some Helping Parents in Mason County and parents of younger children.  We provide the training!  Please call Sylvia if you're able to give some of your time to support another parent!  360-352-1126 x 106 or [email protected]

We've had requests for Play Groups.  If anyone wants to help pull something together and facilitate, we have the space!  Please contact Sylvia if this is an interest!

SSP2P FOREVER!

YES, that seems a VERY dramatic title and it's meant to be!  We hear all the time, "Oh, we can't come to SSP2P events anymore because our child graduated from Birth to Three."

PLEASE know that once you're connected with South Sound Parent to Parent, you are  considered one of our families and are ALWAYS welcome to participate in ALL of our events, workshops, activities...you name it!  

SSP2P is a "life span" organization.  We are in it with you for the long haul.  Please contact us if you need anything at all and we hope to see ALL AGES of kids/families at all events!!!

Events

We are SO excited about our new partnership with Briggs Community YMCA!  Parents and Teens (13-21), please check it out!  Sylvia will be there along with the Y staff.  This will be a great time every week!
