Connections
PEPS in West Seattle would like to facilitate connections of PEPS-Plus groups that meet based on specific areas of interest (i.e., 2nd child, adoption, gay parenting, fatherhood, going back to work, single parenting, children with special needs). We will do this by promoting the group (publishing its meeting schedule), helping to secure a meeting place, and providing overall guidance & support. Your job is to step forward with a topic area and a desire to connect with others.

If you have an idea and are willing to get something started, please contact Amy Daly-Donovan.
