Parenting can be difficult the second time around. We offer help for those raising others children.

We are pleased to be the only organization in central Pennsylvania to offer a group for Grandparents Raising Minor Children, located in Harrisburg and Newport. This group helps grandparents cope with raising children "a second time around" by providing advice on where to turn for assistance as well as a forum to share experiences and frustrations with other grandparents.
