PEPS Programs

Newborn
Neighborhood-based groups for new parents with babies 2-20 weeks old. Groups meet in daytime groups with one parent attending (the same parent attends each week), or evening sessions with one or both parents. PEPS Groups are offered online, in person at community sites, or in person in homes.

Second Time Around
Focuses on the newborn in a family with one or more older children. One parent attends with the newborn 2-20 weeks old in neighborhood-based groups (the same parent attends each week). PEPS Groups are offered online, in person at community sites, or in person in homes.

Baby Peppers
One parent attends with their older baby, ages 5-12 months (the same parent attends each week). Groups are offered online or in person at community sites.

Connecting the Expecting
Birthing people, their partner, and adoptive parents can register to join groups that align with their third trimester to attend a 6-week series that will include time to share highs and lows and feature topics for discussion each week. These Groups meet virtually, with a limited number of groups offered in person in the Seattle area.

Affinity Programs
PEPS is developing affinity programs for parents to meet and connect with families who share identities that intersect with their identity as parents or caregivers. These Groups meet virtually.

Parents of Adolescents and Teens
PEPS has developed a program to offer facilitated peer-support groups for parents with adolescents and teens (PAT). These Groups meet virtually.

PEPS Network Groups
Network Partners offer groups to families in their region with a variety of diverse identities, needs, and communities.
