We offer many groups on our online community, including:
The HRP Mamas Mamas group - open to persons who reside Downtown who are mothers, expectant mothers/birthing persons, identify as mothers, or as non-binary parents. This group has been active since 2004 and is a safe space for mothers to discuss the experience of motherhood and to connect with their peers.
The HRP Papas group - open to persons who reside Downtown who are fathers, expectant fathers, identify as fathers, or as non-binary parents. This group was established in 2021 and is for advice, discussion, and meet-ups for fathers to connect with each other.
The HRP Mamas Classifieds group - open to all parents and expectant parents who reside Downtown. The Classifieds is for buying/selling used and/or new gear, finding/recommending childcare and household help, real estate/vacation rentals, and more.
The HRP Mamas Central Park Mamas Group - open to persons who reside Uptown who are mothers, expectant mothers/birthing persons, identify as mothers, or as non-binary parents.
All mamas have access to subgroups by due/birth date so that they may connect in person with each other in our neighborhood / due and birth date based chats and virtually via our weekly free mother's circles, breastfeeding support groups, and mom support groups.
Plus many other HRP Mamas subgroups as listed here.
