• Commonpoint Parent Workshop - Self Care, Self Love (02-12-25)

  Our Self-Care Self-Love Parent Workshop was AMAZING! We loved seeing each and every family attending. We hope you had fun learning and creating your tote bags with us💙💫💛 Teaching self-care and self-love to parents is crucial because it allows them to maintain their mental and physical well-being, which directly translates to better parenting by enabling them to be more present, patient, and emotionally available for their children✨ We are in this together 🫶🏽 #communityhappenshere
  
  We would also like to thank local community partnerships for their contributions to our event! Please support those who support our community💙💛
