What is the Parent Connection Resource Guide?
The PCRG is a comprehensive guide of parenting resources in Northern Virginia - whether it is upcoming parenting classes, ongoing parent support groups, weekly playgroups, one-time workshops or even early intervention programs - any program that nurtures families and is held January through April 2010 should be included!

Click here to see the Fall 2009 Parent Connection Resource Guide to see how your program was listed in our last edition. If you have specific changes or questions pertaining to how your program was represented in this past issue, please write me a brief, detailed note indicating the change(s) that should be made. I will call and/or e-mail you back if I have additional questions.

THANK YOU for taking the time out of your day to provide this information as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Have a great week!
