This group was started in 2006 by a mom and dad with two adopted kids of a different race and two biological kids. The purpose of the group is to meet and connect ourselves and our children with families that are similar to our own. We have grown to 30+ plus families in the Montclair, New Jersey (and surrounding) area. We are all connected by adoption; many through DYFS, some domestically and some internationally. We are a welcoming and inclusive group open to all adoptive multiracial families.

¡Hola, mamás y papás!!! Mi intención es formar un grupo integrado por mamás y papás bilingües interesados en que el español, como lengua y como cultura, sea parte de la crianza de sus hijos. Decidí empezar este grupo porque conozco varias personas que saben español pero tienen dificultades para hablarlo con los hijos, ya sea porque carecen del vocabulario de la vida cotidiana, porque los niños se resisten a hablar español, o por otras razones. Existen muchas ideas para hacer del español una leng …

It's hard to be a single parent, whether or not you share custody. It's hard to feel like all your married friends have someone to share these responsibilities with, while you're doing it all on your own.

Socializing can be challenging as well, both with your child and with other adults. Regardless of our situations, all single parents shar …
