Parent Academy is a special initiative by Grand River Friendship Society that supports parents in becoming more informed, confident, and effective in raising their children with care and purpose.

Held throughout the year, this free program combines seminars, workshops, and one-on-one mentorship to help parents understand their vital role in education, communication, and child development.

We offer
• Seminars on effective parenting and education strategies
• Guidance on emotional, social, and academic development
• Support for navigating the Canadian education system
• Opportunities for mentor-parent collaboration and community building

Participation is open to parents from all backgrounds. Sessions are designed to be flexible, engaging, and culturally inclusive, with no fees or strict attendance rules.

Our team includes experienced mentors, educators, and professionals who are dedicated to helping families grow together with love and understanding.

Parent Academy is more than just information. It is a supportive space where parents learn, connect, and gain the confidence to build healthier homes and brighter futures.
