A Free, In-Person,  Parent Support Group for adoptive, foster, or kinship families in Central New York ~ Serving Broome, Cayuga, Chemung, Cortland, Madison and Tompkins counties with a location easily accessible for our Chemung families!

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

Join us for our monthly Central New York  Caregivers Connection LIVE Chemung County AM groups, 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

Support Group is adult caregivers only – however parents are welcome to bring their children who can play in the space while the group meets. HFRC Staff will be onsite to assist with supervision,  but parents may also step away and return to the group as needed to care for children. During the Summer months, Horseheads Family Resource Center will provide lunch for youth at noon.

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