Parents in Progress (PiP)
We provide childcare at PiP trainings, thus enabling resource parents to build community and receive training while our students work alongside trained therapists in providing informed childcare that both nurtures and increases bonds between the students and youth. |

Resource Closet
We collect clothing and supplies from the community to be distributed to resources families throughout Santa Barbara County. If you would like to visit our resource closet, please contact us, and we’ll set up an appointment. |

Speaker Series
We invite students school-wide to hear stories each month from individuals who have come in contact with the foster system, including foster youth, foster/adopt parents, therapists, social workers, camp counselors, etc. If you would like to share your story, please contact us so we may add you to our calendar. |

Meet Ups
We invite resource families to enjoy various free events, such as Lane Farms, Ice in Paradise, and MOXI, with the intention of providing relational opportunities between students and foster youth that may grow into sustained support for resource families. |
|
Parent's Night Out
We invite resource families to drop off their children while the parents spend a night out (or in), taking a moment to reconnect and/or rest. For the youth, we provide childcare, food, and fun activities. |

Storytime
We invite current and prospective resource parents to come hear families share their experience, followed by a time of support, Q & A, and training. |
