Fred Rogers Institute’s Family Connection Groups bring moms of children ages 0-5 together to share in their everyday experiences caring for their children. During sessions, we will draw from the wisdom of Fred Rogers and discuss the Six Fundamentals of Learning and Growing (self worth, trust, curiosity, solitude, looking and listening carefully, and play) and how these connect to being a mom. This is not a class, but an opportunity to connect with, and be supported by, other moms!
In the spring of 2026 we will run two Family Connection Groups for moms of children ages 0-5:
Family Connection Groups will take place online via Zoom. We hope moms will engage in meetings however they are comfortable and able - at home with a child on your lap, at work on a lunch break, or in the car driving to work. Meetings will take place on the dates below.
