Better Together to offer Parents’ Night Out May 28, June 3 in Jacksonville

Better Together, a nonprofit dedicated to helping families in crisis and preventing the need for foster care, is hosting Parents’ Night Out events on Saturday, May 28 and Friday, June 3 in Jacksonville.

The program offers parents, grandparents and other caregivers access to a couple of hours of no-cost care for children ages infant through 17 years old. Better Together will provide background-checked volunteers in addition to dinner, games and fun for children to enjoy while parents are away.

“It takes a village to raise a child, and Parents’ Night Out provides parents much-needed time to take care of errands, have some time alone or enjoy a date night,” said Megan Rose, CEO of Better Together. “It’s a time to do whatever helps you by taking a break from your daily routine while your children have a fun evening under the supervision of background-checked volunteers.”

The May 28 Parents’ Night Out is hosted by Bold City Church and will take place from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at First Coast High School, 590 Duval Station Road in Jacksonville.

The June 3 Parents’ Night Out will take place from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at Normandy Park Baptist Church, located at 7050 Normandy Blvd. in Jacksonville.
