Testimonials
Women and parents who have taken our classes state they are much more prepared for motherhood, parenting, and all the surprises that come with it.
“I would give the classes at the Advocacy Center an ‘A’ (or a highly satisfied rating) because the videos gave great advice and at the end the instructor made sure to help with questions.”

“Coming to class helped me fill in on the stuff I missed (with my other two children). We went over questions I got wrong, and I was able to get good answers! They made sure everyone was caught up before and after class, and they had material ready before we got to class.”

“Their heart to come alongside young parents is clear and strong. Their aim to teach and help these families is pointed as well. One of the things I deeply appreciate about their service to our area is their mindset to think outside the box, to innovate and create what is not currently available. That is much needed in the areas for which they would use funds they get. For a variety of reasons our area has a pronounced need for young parents to learn the how’s and whys behind parenting effectively. I can’t help but think their model and plans for doing this has such a high probability to bring noticeable help.”
