Get the Word Out About PEPS
Spread the Word About PEPS
75% of participants find out about PEPS from a friend. When it comes to building awareness of the work we do at PEPS, there's no substitute for good old-fashioned word of mouth and personal communication.
Here are a few powerful, easy-to-accomplish ways you can help:
“One of the chief complaints new parents have in the transition to parenthood is the great isolation they feel from their social circle. For their relatives, baby is often a stranger. For their friends, baby is often a four-letter word…”
- Dr. John Medina, Brain Rules for Baby
"First-time parent groups provide lasting benefits not only for families, but also for society as a whole."
- U.S. National Library of Medicine and National Institutes of Health
