Pregnancy & Parenting Classes 

Classes at Directions are offered one-on-one and are centered on conversation and support. Clients are invited to explore educational content through BrightCourse, followed by time with a trained advocate to talk through the material, ask questions, and discuss anything else they would like support with.

 

These sessions are flexible, confidential, and designed to meet you where you are, at your own pace.

​

Classes are available for those who would like additional education or support. Topics are flexible and can be explored based on your specific interests and questions.
