A significant grant award is set to bolster a vital community resource for parents in the Beloit area. Family Services of Southern Wisconsin has received a Stateline Community Foundation Community Impact Grant dedicated to its Moms on Mondays Parenting Support Group.

This funding will directly enable the expansion and enhancement of the established program, which provides a critical, judgment-free space for caregivers. The group meetings offer peer support, practical parenting strategies, and a sense of community, helping to reduce isolation and build confidence among participants.

Organizers emphasize the program's importance in fostering stronger, healthier family foundations within the region. The new grant ensures that more parents can access this supportive network, allowing the group to potentially increase its frequency, reach, or available resources. The investment reflects a committed focus on strengthening the social fabric by directly supporting those in caregiving roles, acknowledging the profound community-wide benefits of empowered and connected families.
