Parents' Testimony:
Parents' Testimony:
"Trusted Parents has been great for my family. I've been to all the meetings, and it is a great experience. Just the childcare during the meetings alone is wonderful. The volunteers are very attentive to the kids. My kids love going to the children's library during the support group meetings. I have been blessed to meet other parents/caregivers that understand my situation, and who are able to offer advise. The speakers that come to meeting are very informative. I look forward to the monthly meeting"
