Connecting parents to build a loving community of families of color
Parent Groups
Peer-led parent support groups for families of color. Connect with other families through an eight to ten week cohort for newborns, waddlers, and affinity groups.
Family Programs
Engage in dialogue and cultural arts at our events for families of color. Join us and co-create affirming, joyful, and healing spaces for Black and Brown children and families.
Systems Change Work
Bring FOCS consultants to your school, organization, or workplace for race and equity workshops and dialogue, centering children and families of color.
FOCS is led by parents of color
We value lived-experience and women of color leadership
