A Free, In-Person, Parent Support Group for adoptive, foster, or kinship families in the Hudson Valley ~ Encompassing Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster and Westchester Counties with a location easily accessible to those in Western Hudson Valley!
We’re thrilled to announce the return of our in-person Hudson Valley support groups for adoptive, foster, and kinship caregivers, facilitated by HV AGAPE staff. Each facilitator brings their own lens of lived experience (foster parent, adoptive parent, adult adoptee).
Join us for our monthly Western Hudson Valley Connection LIVE event, where we’ll delve into crucial topics such as:
understanding our children’s behaviors
fostering parental resilience
tackling school challenges
addressing social and emotional hurdles
exploring therapeutic versus traditional parenting approaches
We welcome all parents and caregivers seeking a compassionate and understanding community to connect, share, and grow together!
Typically meeting the second Monday of every month (unless holiday conflict)
