New Parents Support Group
JF&CS offers groups for parents and babies through their Center for Early Relationship Support, and has a new weekly group starting here at Temple Israel! The free support groups provide safe and nurturing spaces for parents to figure out what works best for them, their babies, and their families. Mothers and/or fathers with their babies (birth to one year old) can give and receive support, ask questions, and begin building a community of support. Registration is NOT required.
