Workshop on the parent-grandparent partnership: How it can work for you

As parents, it can be a challenging to find time and resources to meet the ever-growing needs of our children. However, we may have overlooked one of the best resources of all…grandparents. Research indicates grandparents offer invaluable resources to grandchildren - including emotional support such as listening or offering advice - to more physical support such as child care, companionship, help with chores, and transportation, as well as some may even offer financial support. These research findings highlight the value of grandparent-grandchild relationships revealing the healthy importance of building and maintaining these vital relationships. Join us to hear more about the benefits of grandparents and learn about resources for grandparents raising grandchildren.
