Nobody's Perfect is a program for parents/caregivers of children aged 0-5 years, where parents/caregivers can support one another and build community in a fun and interactive environment. Our focus will be on the day-to-day issues that arise when caring for young children, in a group that centers the experiences of queer families.

Registration is required for this program (it is not a drop-in), and it is free to participate. Once you have signed up, one of our facilitators will text you to arrange a time to chat about what you can expect from the program, find out what you'd like to get out of our time together, and finish the registration process. Registration will be limited to 10 parents/caregivers
