PARENTS Forum

Principal Investigator Eve Sullivan

Project Website http://www.parentsforum.org


PARENTS FORUM is a unique parent peer support program founded in 1992. Our mission is to bring together parents and others to practice good communications skills in order to become more responsible in our families and more involved in our communities. With respect and honest we work through the conflicts and strong feelings that arise in family and community life.

PARENTS FORUM board members and volunteers take part in activities such as literacy events, crime prevention and safety fairs, and conferences on parenting and family life. We also organize Book and Toy Exchanges in our local communities to benefit other agencies serving families. Please let us know what your parent group, school group or home-schooling group is doing!

PARENTS FORUM board members and volunteers lead workshops on the eight questions on family life that make up our Agenda. These workshops can be presented in two, three or four sessions. We also present a one-session workshop "How To Tell Somebody Something They'd Rather Not Hear" based on question three of our agenda. If you are interested in sponsoring or hosting a workshop or workshop series at your school, church, clinic, place of work or other community location, please contact us!
