Parent As Partners Initiative
Food, Food and More Food!
Can you believe how expensive food has become?!?! It’s another challenge to stretch the dollar as well as squeeze out family time. This is the workshop for you! One night will focus on power shopping; another will watch fantastic meals demonstrated; and the last night we will test our knowledge by preparing the time and money-saving recipes.
Yes, come hungry and leave full…

tough conversation, but when
you’re prepared to share you’ll be
amazed how helpful it is to know just
what to say. Research shows how
important this conversation can and

Parenting…it’s not as simple as it
looks. Teens don’t come with
instructions and they certainly don’t
come with subtitles. Being thrown

We have a plan…you have a kid.
Let’s put them together and build a
successful relationship! It’s one step
at a time with one win to go.

happen to you. Would you like to be a
survivor in the war on drugs?
Words that hurt, actions that bruise,
and memories that take away
innocence. For every risk the world
throws at your kid, there is a protective
factor to help block that dodge ball.
Hear what your kids are hearing . . .not
only in the classroom, but on the
streets. Make a plan; practice with
purpose; stop the violence.
What are you preparing for dinner
