A Free, In-Person,  Parent Support Group for adoptive, foster, or kinship families in the Hudson Valley ~ Encompassing Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster and Westchester Counties with a location easily accessible to those in Orange and Sullivan Counties!

We’re thrilled to announce the return of our in-person Hudson Valley support groups for adoptive, foster, and kinship caregivers, facilitated by HV AGAPE staff. Each facilitator brings their own lens of lived experience (foster parent, adoptive parent, adult adoptee). 

Join us for our monthly Hudson Valley Connection LIVE Orange and Sullivan County event, where we’ll delve into crucial topics such as:

  • understanding our children’s behaviors
  • fostering parental resilience
  • tackling school challenges
  • addressing social and emotional hurdles
  • exploring therapeutic versus traditional parenting approaches

We welcome all parents and caregivers seeking a compassionate and understanding community to connect, share, and grow together!

What to Expect: During the first hour (6:30-7:30 pm) we will provide a brief educational parenting training on a pre-determined topic. The second hour (7:30-8:30 pm) will be an opportunity for all parents and caregiver’s to share what’s on their mind.
