Parenting on Purpose
We all know that children don’t come with instruction manuals, and with today’s barrage of seemingly opposing information and uncharted societal issues, parenting can seem overwhelming. The 9-week Parenting on Purpose Video Series seeks to help parents make sense of all the information, through proven and practical parenting solutions created by Dr. Bob Barnes. Dr. Bob Barnes has a doctorate in counseling and received his education at Maryville College and Florida Atlantic University and he presents seminars and conferences on Parenting and Marriage throughout North America.
The Mission of Cleft of the Rock Foundation is to help abused and abandoned children and struggling families improve their circumstances through education, life coaching, proper shelter, nourishment, and work. Our Vision outlines our dedicated endeavors to mold a society where each child encounters security, value, and empowerment, thereby contributing to a future that is brighter and more compassionate for everyone.
Through the Partners in Parent Education Program, you can partner with us to raise awareness of the need for parent education, offer more parent education opportunities to more families, and build communities where families are strong and children are safe through the love and support of deliberate parenting.
We have a Major Giving Circle comprising 5 different levels to meet your budget and your desire to partner. These are yearly amounts that are tax-deductible. The end of the year is near, take this time to make a difference and support Cleft of the Rock Foundation, Inc. to help parents and children!
Please click on the link to join your circle, and become our partner. We are excited about our success so far with the initiatives we are engaged in, and we welcome your partnership.

Parenting on Purpose Support Sessions
Cleft of the Rock Foundation, Inc. has officially started our Parenting on Purpose Support Sessions. If you have completed the Parenting on Purpose video series we invite you to participate.
We are committed to supporting each family we encounter. We recognize that in these times, as parents, it’s incredibly difficult to plan ahead or fit self-improvement into our already jam-packed schedules. From commutes to our destinations, extra-curricular activities, work and/or overtime, or a million other time-consumers, it can seem impossible to keep your head above water, much less commit to getting somewhere. Even if you will leave that somewhere fulfilled, refreshed, and better equipped to parent deliberately.
The good news is, we can schedule time for a Parenting On Purpose Support Session (POPS), led by Brenda Williams, a wise and amazing mother and grandmother who is committed to growing families. Email us today to schedule your session.

Raised by the Village
In our fast-paced, individualistic world, the age-old adage "It takes a village to raise a child" has never rung truer. The concept of communal child-rearing, where a child's upbringing is a collective effort involving not only parents but also extended family, friends, and the community, has numerous benefits that extend far beyond the child's formative years.
Our world sometimes seems increasingly disconnected, but the benefits of being Raised by the Village highlight the importance of fostering a sense of community and interdependence for the well-being of our children and society as a whole.
These are our stories.
