Your strong family begins with you

Parenting young children can be stressful, especially if you’ve never parented before or are on your own. But Strengthening Families at Bethany can help.

Whether you’re expecting or parenting already, we offer parenting education designed to boost your knowledge and your confidence so you can be the safe, nurturing, empowered parent you want to be for your child.

We’ll cover a range of practical topics, and because we’re with you one-on-one, we can tailor your learning to your unique situation. Together, we’ll set goals and create a plan to ensure you can meet your children’s needs today and in the future.
