The Communities In Schools of Brunswick County Parenting Education Program offers free support groups for anyone in a parenting role. We follow the Circle of Parents model which encourages parents to lead the groups with the help of a trained facilitator. The support groups are a place for grandparents and parents to share ideas and talk about anything related to raising kids: discipline, school, health, safety. Parents decide the topics, lead the discussions, and are involved in all levels of decision-making. Facilitators provide additional information and support as needed. Below is a list of our support groups which meet twice a month.
