Parent Link has a new home in the Pason Centennial Arena expansion.

After spending several years operating out of the Okotoks United Church, the group now has a permanent home upstairs in the Olympic Rooms at Pason.

Debbie Posey, Community Wellness Manager for the Town of Okotoks, says it's important Parent Link has this permanent, new facility as they're a great free resource for local families.

"Little ones don't come with a manual and extended family isn't always available to help new parents with parenting, so this is an amazing opportunity for parents to go hang out with fully qualified staff and other parents, play with their children, and get some great information."

She adds the new location hosts an opportunity for Parent Link to grow.

"It's allowed Parent Link to expand their offerings by one day and then an evening as well. I think just having that stable space where they're not renting from another party will allow that consistency and stability that we've been looking for."

Posey thanks the Okotoks United Church for their continued support and allowing Parent Link to share their space with them over the past few years.

Parent Link's doors will be officially be open at their new space in Pason on Apr. 4.
