Around the Table's Inaugural Family Day

Be part of the inaugural Family Day event in Porter County. Family Day is a national initiative created by CASAColumbia in 2001 to promote simple acts of parental engagement as key ways to help prevent risky behavior in children and teens. This event is Sponsored by Around the Table, an initiative of EMPOWER Porter County.

More Event Details

What started out in 2001 as a grassroots initiative to inform parents about all the benefits of frequent family dinners, has grown into a national movement that is supported by a network of partners and sponsors across the country.

Family Day has evolved and expanded to reflect how important it is to connect with your kids at various times throughout the day including while driving your kids to soccer practice, tucking little ones into bed or having frequent family dinners. These every day activities have a lasting effect on your children. Each of these moments offers an opportunity to communicate with your kids and to really listen to what’s on their mind.

Join us on September 21st as we kick off our Around the Table initiative at 4 locations throughout Porter County.
