Parentings participating in a parenting journey group

Parenting is rewarding, challenging, joyful, and exhausting, sometimes all in the same day. Having a place to gather with other parents and caregivers can make a real difference.

As the former U.S. Surgeon General shared in the Parents Under Pressure report, 41% of parents say that on most days they are so stressed that they cannot function, while 48% say that their stress feels completely overwhelming compared with other adults.

Parenting Journey groups create space for parents to reflect, share experiences, and learn from one another. Our new Find a Parenting Group directory makes it easier to find organizations currently offering Parenting Journey parent groups in communities across the country.

Parenting Journey groups give parents and caregivers a chance to reflect on how they were raised, make intentional choices about how they want to parent, and explore what self-care can look like, all within a safe, trauma-informed, strengths-focused space. Along the way, parents are surrounded by others navigating their own journeys, creating opportunities to share experiences and learn from one another.

Groups use one of Parenting Journey’s curricula, including Parenting Journey 1, Parenting Journey 2, Parenting in America, Parenting Journey Fathers, Parenting in Recovery, and My Journey. These groups are offered through organizations and led by family support professionals who have completed Parenting Journey facilitator training.

The Find a Parenting Group directory is organized by state. Whether you are a parent or caregiver looking for a group or a family support professional looking for a resource to share, this directory is a great place to start.

A Resource for Family Support Professionals

Family support professionals often look for trusted resources to share with the parents and caregivers they serve. The directory provides another way to connect families with local organizations offering Parenting Journey groups and opportunities to participate in a Parenting Journey curriculum.

Because these groups are offered through individual organizations and communities, availability may vary. We encourage parents and professionals to contact the organization directly for the most up to date information.
