H.O.P.E. (Helping Ourselves Parent Effectively) is a 7-week program designed to help expectant mothers and fathers prepare for the care of their newborn, as well as for parents with preschoolers.   The H.O.P.E. classes are offered four times a year: The first class will be on a Monday evening from 6:15 PM – 8:30 PM.  The remaining course will be offered online.

Participants have the opportunity to earn while they learn. Graduates of the program choose between a new crib or a new infant car-seat and also receive a bountiful layette of brand new baby items from the Center’s H.O.P.E. Boutique.
