An essential resource for caregivers.

Clinton Human Services is excited to share the newest episode of our Parenting in Our Community podcast. This episode is one of eight conversations we have recorded so far, each focused on topics that impact families in our community.

In this episode, we speak with Marissa, a homeschooling mom of three, about what homeschooling looks like for her family, how creativity and hands-on learning shape their approach to education, and some of the current conversations happening around homeschooling legislation. It is an informative and thoughtful discussion that highlights an important reminder: at the end of the day, most parents want the same thing: to raise healthy, supported, and capable children.

The goal of Parenting in Our Community is to create a space where parents can learn about resources, hear different perspectives, and feel supported in the many challenges and joys that come with raising children.

We would love to hear from you. What parenting topics would you like us to talk about in future episodes?
