Who We Are
Creating a family is an amazing time full of excitement, wonder, and questioning. Often families find themselves with nowhere to turn to share in their joy or worries. It takes a village to raise a child.
Mission: Parenting Village fosters the health and wellbeing of children and families in the Rochester area by offering support and connection for all families.
Vision: We envision an inclusive, mutually supportive community in which all families thrive.
What We Do
**Due to COVID-19 most programming is being offered virtually.
Circles- free, drop-in, supportive groups facilitated by trained Parenting Village volunteers who have knowledge and experience related to family relationships and infant/child development.
Nurture- free, home-based peer support program that contributes to the health and wellbeing of communities by providing physical, emotional, and practical support to any family following the birth or adoption of a new baby.
Connection- free community events that provide opportunities for families to make lasting connections with other families. Through these events, families learn about and experience the many family-related activities that our area has to offer. Some past gatherings include potlucks, adult nights out, playground meet ups and volunteering events.
