Describe the challenge you want to address:

The challenges facing working parents and the demands placed on their time and energy leaves little time for them to focus on their own self care, mental health, relationships outside of their children.

Describe your idea and approach to address the challenge:

Create a series of self care working parents evenings where for 2 hours parents can drop off their kids at a local community center. With certified child care professionals the kids can play games swim and snack, arts and crafts etc while the parents can take that time to bond , relax, eat whatever. Could also provide resources to parents for registration info for further support.
