Supporting Mother, Fathers & Families in the Neighborhood

The Friends of Christopher Columbus Park support mothers, fathers and families in the North End and Waterfront Neighborhoods.  This page has many links and resources for mothers with newborns or school aged children.  We know that connecting to other mothers and families in the city can be more challenging than in the suburbs so we try to connect new moms with other neighborhood moms. 

If you are new to the neighborhood with children or if you just had a baby please feel free to contact us for information on how to get connected with other local families.
