Being
a parent is a humbling and wonderful experience. Often, though,
it takes all the strength we can summon to meet the challenges
of being a parent.
Information
is power, and there are many resources
and Web sites devoted to parents these days, including some
that answer many questions for moms.
It's also critical to understand important health issues that
could devastate your child's life, like fetal
alcohol syndrome.
Ilisaqsivik
has several programs for parents, including its Healthy Children's
program for those with toddlers, an after-school program,
prenatal nutrition program and recovery group support meetings
for parents who took part in our previous "High Risk
Kids" workshops. We also run a food bank, with such basic
items as Similac.
We know
parents have a tough job, so please e-mail
us if you have any questions, or just need another adult to
talk to!

Pals registry!
