Parenting while juggling work, a pandemic, acculturation and a new language is incredibly challenging. In a new virtual 9-week program that began in January 2021, JFS, along with two all-star trainers based in Baltimore, Maryland, provided a positive parenting workshop and support group.
Thirteen parents graduated from the program on Saturday! JFS looks forward to building on this knowledge to continue to work with these parents, their children, and community.
Thank you to our trainers, Agatha – originally from Kenya, and Solomon – originally from Eritrea, along with our outstanding Swahili speaking staff and community leader, Fikiri, for a successful and lively 9 weeks!
