Caregiver Collective – Active Listening
Active Listening Skills to Transform Relationships
Saturday, April 11, 10:00-11:30 am at Family Focus Cicero, 1500 S 59th Ct, Cicero, IL 60804 or online
Presented in English and Spanish!
You’ll learn what active listening is and then practice using it! Active listening can deepen our understanding of our loved ones and can help us see more clearly where they are coming from. It’s also a great way to jump-start new, meaningful connections with the other parents and caregivers in this workshop. Breakfast and child care is available.

About the Caregiver Collective: The Caregiver Collective is a workshop series that is designed specifically for parents/caregivers raising young children. Over the course of five workshops, starting this fall, we will build life skills and sharpen your goals so that you have a pathway to achieve them! If you can’t make it to every workshop, that’s ok! We will fill you in. We welcome you no matter how much time you’re able to commit. You’re busy. We get it!
Please note that we ask that anyone interested register at least 48 hours in advance. If we do not receive the minimum of five registrants by that time, the event may be canceled or postponed due to cost and resource constraints. We understand that advance planning can be challenging for families, so last-minute registrations and attendees are welcome if the event has already met the minimum number of registrants.
If you plan to join online, please also note that we discourage the use of AI notetaking to respect the privacy of other participants and facilitators and to promote a safe space in the workshop. If you need AI software for accessibility or assistive purposes, please reach out to us at parents@collab4kids.org.
