The Garden Family Advocacy Center has rolled out a new parenting program aimed at supporting families across three counties. Called the Active Parenting Program, the series of classes will be available in Scioto, Pike, and Ross Counties. The center is now inviting local families to take part in what they describe as a chance to build connections with other parents while working through a structured, family-focused curriculum.
The program is designed to give caregivers practical tools and strategies for raising children in today's world. Organizers say the classes will cover topics like communication, discipline, and building strong family bonds. By bringing parents together in a group setting, the center hopes to create a supportive network where people can share experiences and learn from one another.
Officials at the Garden Family Advocacy Center emphasized that the program is open to all families in the region, regardless of their background or current challenges. They see it as a way to strengthen the community from the ground up. Classes are expected to run on a regular schedule, with details on dates and registration available through the center's local offices. The launch marks a significant step in expanding family support services in the area.
