MOPS

MOPS is an organization that gathers and supports moms. This organization believes in the simple but revolutionary idea that remarkable things happen when moms come together. MOPS stands for “Mothers of Preschoolers” because the organization began in 1973 when a group of moms with young children banded together to share their lives and parenting journeys. Over the past 45 years, MOPS has expanded their reach to include ALL moms.  In addition, MOPS partners with churches and organizations worldwide to equip and encourage moms in more than 68 countries.
