Understanding Flexible Pricing

PEPS offers program fee options for all PEPS Groups within the Flexible Pricing model. These options allow families to choose the amount that works best for them AND help to keep our program fees accessible. We encourage registrants to choose the fee most appropriate for their families.

Why does PEPS offer Flexible Pricing?

PEPS is a community-driven nonprofit committed to ensuring all parents have equitable opportunities to participate in a range of parent peer-support programs. We recognize that families have different abilities to pay. 

By offering Flexible Pricing to all participants, PEPS aims to:

  • Make our programs and services accessible to every family who wants to participate.
  • Offer program fee choices to better suit each family’s needs.
  • Provide additional financial assistance on all programs and to all PEPS families.

How does Flexible Pricing work?

Flexible Pricing program fee options take multiple factors into account: the number of parents registered to participate, the duration of the program, the facilitation model, along with the training and support provided free of charge to all PEPS Group facilitators. 

Families selecting the higher fee options assist in supporting our mission to increase accessibility to our programs and make it possible for more families who can participate in our programs, as well as funding partnership work and pilot programs like our Affinity Groups.

Just as everybody's financial situation is unique, so is the program fee choice that will feel right for your family. Additional financial assistance is available on all programs. Your Flexible Pricing choice is always kept confidential and will not affect the quality of your experience. 

PEPS is funded in part by the program fees we charge, accounting for approximately 21% of our annual budget. The remaining 79% of our budget is comprised of donations by individuals, foundations, and partner businesses. A big thank you to the generosity of our funders, sponsors, and families who have contributed more! These supporters make it possible for PEPS to offer a zero-fee option for our Connecting the Expecting program for expectant parents.
