Building the Family (BTF) is a group-based parenting support program offered at six locations in Bucks and Montgomery Counties. Parenting groups meet monthly in the evening and welcome pregnant and parenting families with children up to age 5.

Each meeting provides critical information and education, vital social connections, and hands-on support to parents.
