“Parenting Again”: Known as Grandparenting and Kincare

Join us to discuss “Parenting again.” The family dynamic continues to increase as opioid and other substance use issues create the need for a non-parent family member to assume responsibility of caring for our children —babies through teens. Recognized in this situation are grandparents, but also other kin stepping into the role. Family caregivers are placed in positions of grief, concern of the loved one, the child’s trauma, unexpected financial stress, legal issues, and fear if the relationship is terminated.

The workshop will explore issues and potential solutions for the kin providers fulfilling the parenting role. Information about support services, both emotional and financial, will be shared. Ideas will be shared for a fun and rewarding environment. Join us for some discussion in support of our families.
