Initiative to offer parenting programs

The Parenting Education Initiative will offer a series of programs.

A different program will be offered each month at either Lawrence Memorial Hospital or the Lawrence Public Library.

The first program at 2 p.m. Saturday addresses bullying and will be in Room D on the lower level of the hospital, 325 Maine. Sarah Jane Russell, executive director of the GaDuGi SafeCenter, will give a presentation.

Though the program will be directed at parents, other members of the community may also attend.
