Parents with lived child welfare experience are here to help support you through this. We have classes, tips, resources and phone mentoring available. Parents typically come to court for their first hearing feeling scared, confused, angry, and alone. A Parent Ally (PA) will meet with parents before they go into court. The PA is someone the parent can relate to and share hope that family preservation or reunification is possible. This helps diffuse some negative feelings and attitudes, and helps parents be more open-minded to engage in the process of working with the professionals in the system. They will also talk with the parent about Dependency 101 class and the benefits of attending. The PA gathers contact information from the parent, signs him or her up for the Dependency 101 class, provides moral support, and gives parents information about local resources.
