Van Buren Great Start Collaborative is looking for referrals for their 6 week parent workshop: Saturdays July 27-Aug. 31st; virtually 10am-12pm. They are looking for parents, foster parents, guardians, grandparents etc., who are not receiving services from VBCMH. VBCMH understands that there are many caregivers who do not meet the criteria for VBCMH services that would benefit from learning about trauma informed parenting. This workshop is free due to support from the Van Buren Great Start Collaborative. If you have questions call or email Marcella Bell-Pitchford 269-539-0800. mbellpitchford@vbcmh.com
