our little village peer support network for households with littles

Welcome to our little village, a peer support community for CRC households with young children.

Who better understands what households with little ones need than the people living it every day? our little village brings together CRC parents, grandparents and caregivers of babies, toddlers and preschoolers to play, celebrate Shabbat, lean on one another and build friendships that grow along with our kids. We’d love to hear from you as we shape this new initiative together.
