We’re all in this together
Our Next Generation team believes that although parenting is very rewarding, it also has its challenges, and can feel isolating at times. We believe that everyone wins when we join forces and go through life together. That’s why we have created this website. We hope it will be used as a tool for you as parents and caregivers. Over time, our dream is to fill it with endless pages of blogs, resources, parenting wisdom, and creative ideas all designed to help you be the best parent you can be.

Cell Phone Agreement: Most of us are attached to our phones more than we’d like to admit. Sometimes, we even call people with them. This downloadable resource will help you talk to your child about what a healthy relationship with their phone looks like. In this Cell Phone Agreement, we’ve put together some expectations for caregivers and kids to talk through—both for how/when a kid uses their phone, and for how/when a caregiver uses theirs.
Confidence Cards: Kids and students NEED to hear kind, encouraging, and constructive words from their grownups. Each card gives prompts, and you can fill in each of those blanks for your kid to remind them of their value and that you believe in them.
