About the Program

Since 1985, FSN has connected parents to volunteer parents who are uniquely qualified to help because of shared experiences, and are trained to offer support in meaningful ways for families undergoing a new diagnosis, transition, or crisis. FSN’s Parent Mentor Orientation Training offers volunteer parents the tools they need to support others and become an official FSN Parent Mentor.

This training is offered in partnership between FSN of North Carolina, Whole Community Connection, NC Department of Human Health and Services Division of Child and Family Well-Being NC Infant-Toddler Program, and Family Support Network of Southeastern North Carolina.
