Do I have to commit for all 7 sessions?

To get full benefit of the program, we recommend committing to all the upcoming sessions. However, if after attending the first session, you don't feel like it's for you, we totally understand. We would give your spot to someone else.

Does both parents have to attend/register?

Whether you are a mom or dad, your mental well-being plays a crucial role in your child's life. We recommend both parents to join. However, if you are a solo parent, please mention 'solo' at the Parent 2's section. Otherwise priority will be given to families where both parents will be attending.

Is it on-site or online?

This cohort is on-site at Scarborough, and we have another running in Mississauga. But there is a virtual program too! Check out our events section to register.

Is there separation of sexes?

Yes. Mothers' circle and Fathers' circle will be separate, and led by two different facilitators.

I have a question! Who do I get in touch with?
