Parents As Leaders is a free, innovative program designed to partner with parents of pre-school aged children (birth to eight years) to assist them in developing their knowledge in the areas of early childhood development and school readiness, as well as help strengthen their leadership and advocacy skills. Parents are provided with information on support services and resources available to families and children in Montgomery County.

Parents As Leaders is based on the belief that every family has strengths, and all families need and deserve support. Parents As Leaders aims to develop and encourage parental involvement while promoting lifelong learning, health and safety of children. Family supports, such as childcare, transportation and meals are provided for participants during the workshop.
