Community Calendar

An ALL NEW Free, In-Person, Parent Support Group for adoptive, foster, or kinship families in New York City ~ Encompassing the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and Manhattan, with a location in BROOKLYN.
All parents are welcome to join us while the Youth Hangouts Community Group runs simultaneously! Register for both below on one form!
We’re thrilled to announce our NEW in-person support groups for adoptive, foster, and kinship caregivers in Brooklyn! Facilitated by NYC AGAPE staff. Each facilitator brings their own lens of lived experience (foster parent, adoptive parent, adult adoptee).

Join us for our monthly New York City Caregiver Connection LIVE event, where we’ll delve into crucial topics such as:
understanding our children’s behaviors
fostering parental resilience
tackling school challenges
addressing social and emotional hurdles
exploring therapeutic versus traditional parenting approaches

We welcome all parents and caregivers seeking a compassionate and understanding community to connect, share, and grow together!

The youth hangouts community group and the parent group are both held at the same time and place, so parents and kids can both get the support they need! We can’t wait to see you!

Bring the youngest children in your life and enjoy a walk in the woods with Membership and Outreach Coordinator Kate Martin. Children, up to age 3, and caretakers will enjoy a relaxing walk while learning about nature and the Preserve. Meet other caregivers and children while seeing the beauty of the woods as the seasons change. Infants are welcome, but please note that our trails are not suitable for strollers. This event may be canceled due to weather; please dress appropriately for outdoor walking.

Canadian pianist Sarah Hagen’s extensive touring has taken her across Canada, to Sweden, Denmark, France, Germany and Italy, and twice to New York City’s Carnegie Hall. With “Perk up, pianist!” Sarah Hagen has transformed her award-winning role as “concert pianist” into a stand-up, or rather, sit-down comedy. Pairing anecdotes from the road with some of her favorite pieces by Chopin, Debussy, and Liszt, Sarah takes audiences deep inside the world of a classical musician as she shares her earnest efforts to keep her spirits up amid troublesome times. Part storytelling and part recital, “Perk up, pianist!” has been described as “one of the best hours I’ve ever spent at the Fringe” [The Coast, Halifax].
