Required Rest and Spiritual Revitalization
“I don’t have time to make time!” My first thought when I saw Saturday Spring Into Vitality events scheduled for rest and creativity. The first event came, and my doubt and hesitation were met with Uma.

Parent Cafés empower communities by shifting the traditional service model, allowing parents to lead and support each other while developing valuable leadership skills. Designed by the people, for the people, Cafés not only build stronger communities but also offer parents hands-on experience in event planning, public speaking, and outreach—skills that often lead to further opportunities and employment. By compensating parent leaders and fostering political, social, and economic equity, Parent Cafés create sustainable engagement and leadership that continues to uplift families long after the Café ends.
