Parenting comes with a lot of unexpected questions. How do I support my child when she’s struggling? What can soothe my child if he can’t fall asleep? How do I help my teenager make good decisions? What can I do to help my child make friends at school? How can I help my child resist peer pressure?

The Support app connects you with supportive parents and caregivers with similar life experiences. You can find and share stories with new, single, and adoptive parents. You’ll also be able to join with parents who have children the same age as yours, LGBTQ+ children, or children with special needs.

You can also interact with a Community Advocate who will answer your questions and point you to parenting resources. You can:
