Parents + Caregivers – Working Group

Parents & Caregivers working group, with cool stuff about the hand-me-down project and parent meetups at parks!

About Us

We:

  • Build out our resource list, Parenting/CG Resources – Google Sheets, for parents and caregivers.
  • Plan in-person meet-ups and play times so you can get to know your neighbors with kids
  • Foster trust and inter-community reliance on one another for things like childcare and building a more communal way of raising children
  • Brainstorm other ways to connect parents and caregivers, build community, pool resources, and more!

Meetings

Virtual meetings and in-person meetups are currently on hiatus. We are looking for a new Parent/Caregiver coordinator. Please email askyourmamas@gmail.com if you’re interested in getting this working group going again.
