Mom’s Groups
Mom’s Groups provide a fun way for mothers throughout the neighborhood to connect, support, and learn from each other. They provide education and fellowship to mothers to increase their understanding of how to help their children succeed in school, and they also provide resources for children. The ultimate aim of Mom’s Groups is to strengthen families and build a stronger, more tight-knit community.
