Gay and Lesbian Parents Support Group

This four-week group provides parents with children ages one to three years old with an opportunity to discuss general parenting issues as well as issues specific to being gay and lesbian parents.

  • Discuss child development issues including positive discipline, power struggles, and encouraging confidence and competence in your emerging toddler
  • Consider ways to interact with institutions (daycares, schools, places of worship) as you introduce your family to the world
  • Learn how similar families approach questions about donors, carriers, bio vs. non-bio parents, having more children, etc.

Cost: $60 for the series of four sessions. Registration and payment via check or credit card are required before the first session. Packages are available if both partners are participating.
