From Pious Ali: “About a year ago, Portland Empowered partnered with the Maine State Parent Ambassadors (KVCAP) and DHHS to train immigrant parents from Portland, South Portland, and Westbrook on the resources available to them in the state.

Last week, our Parent Ambassadors from South Portland hosted a Shared Space Cafe where they shared what they have learned and the resources available to other parents. This coming weekend, we will be holding another Shared Space Cafe in Westbrook. Please share this flyer with any parents you know who have children aged 0-8.

For those of you who speak only English, here is what you’ll find on the flyer:

"Raising children in America can be challenging. Meet with community parent leaders! Get the help you need, make your parenting journey easier, and learn about the supports available in your community."

Other languages of the flier are available as well.
