 LACASA hosting Spring Parenting Classes, starting March 25 & April 2

    Parents and guardians seeking to improve their skills can register for one of LACASA’s upcoming eight-week parenting programs: Nurturing Parenting and Fathers Only, both beginning in the coming weeks.

    These classes, which offer practical advice, support, and community, are for caregivers of young children looking to create a happier, healthier family dynamic.

    The Nurturing Parenting Program begins on March 25, 2025 and is for parents of newborns to 11 year-old children. This program instructs attendees on the proper uses of empathy, appropriate expectations, positive discipline, and more as they hone their parenting skills during the critical early developmental years.

    Fathers Only classes provide dads and other male caregivers a supportive place to discuss and learn strategies for parenthood. Class topics include fathering without fear, fathering daughters and fathering sons, and much more. The next Fathers Only series begins April 2, 2025.

    “Providing parents with support and resources helps empower them to create a supportive upbringing for children, said LACASA President and CEO Bobette Schrandt. “We are so proud to host these courses, as they are a pillar in the work we do to help strengthen our community.”

    Both courses meet one evening per week for eight weeks at LACASA Center in Howell. The cost to attend the Nurturing Parenting Program is $100 for one parent and $125 for both parents. The Fathers Only program is $125. These fees include supplemental materials.

    To register for either course, or for additional information, contact LACASA’s Parenting Educator Jan Lobur at janl@lacasacenter.org.
