Formed Families Together Peer Support groups provide a safe space for foster, kinship, and adoptive families to share their experiences, concerns, frustrations, and resources! Peer support can be critical to parent and caregiver self-care, can contribute to healthy family functioning, and improved outcomes for children and youth.

Virtual groups will meet via Zoom on the 3rd Wednesday of every month from 7:00-8:30pm in Fairfax, Virginia.

Please note that there is NO childcare for in-person sessions.
