A web of professionals surrounding & supporting families.
Thanks to the Village...

And so The ParenT(w)een Connection was born.
We are a judgment-free zone where parents and other members of 'the village' can connect with each other & with pros to support each other and your t(w)eens.
And yet society tells us we have to go it alone, somehow.
Families are not alone in navigating challenges with teens and tweens.
Professionals are not alone in trying to share their services with the families they can help.
We believe that the tighter of a web the professionals can weave, the more connected, supported, and knowledgeable parents will feel.
And the more connected, supported, and knowledgeable parents feel, the better they can connect with and advocate for their kids.
And the fewer kids we'll lose to suicide.
