Pal for Parents Program

 Pettaway Pursuit Foundation (PPF) launched the Pal for Parents Program (PFP) with the intent of furthering awareness on preventative healthcare and maternal health for the entire family. In addition to all facets of maternal health that PPF advocates for within our various communities, continuous support for mothers and their families has always been at the forefront of our cause. This support is offered with the intention of creating a safe and stress-free environment for the mother to prevent potential birth complications. The PFP allows mothers who are not eligible for the DBMS program to access FREE classes such Childbirth Education, Newborn Care Class, Prenatal Yoga, Nutrition Classes, Breastfeeding Class, and more.  

  

The PFP allows us to collaborate with different organizations, agencies, and schools to expand the topics of the classes and workshops we offered. Moreover, this program not only helps families but also gives opportunities to college students to obtain their clinical hours through PPF internship and facilitating classes.
