Parents Empowering Parents (PEP)

Parents Empowering Parents (PEP) is a parent support group program that provides an opportunity for parents to meet weekly for support and encouragement. The primary purpose of PEP is frontline child abuse prevention.

The Alliance provides free childcare and transportation assistance to group participants. Also, dinner is provided to participants of evening groups.

If you are interested in joining a PEP group, please call the Alliance to let us know where you will attend, how many from your family will be coming, and if you need transportation.
