Support group for single parents

Needham Youth Services is launching a support group to offer single parents the chance to share their stories and struggles. Topics will include how to manage stress, how to find time for personal interests, and best parenting strategies. The group will meet on July 10, 17 and 24, and on Aug. 7, 14 and 21 from 6:15 to 7:45 p.m. Carol Rosenstock, office manager for Needham Youth Services, said the location of the meetings will be given out to registrants once they have confirmed a reservation. Child care and a light dinner will be provided. The group is free, but space is limited and registration is required; the deadline is July 3. For more information or to register, call Katy Colthart at 781-455-7500, ext. 264, or e-mail her at kcolthart@needhamma.gov.
