Piko Pals is a 12-week program of Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies Coalition of Hawaii that aims to foster social connection, community, and peer support for new parents in their first year. Participants and their newborn babies meet weekly in small groups, and support each other through mindful discussion about new parenting concerns like postpartum recovery and breastfeeding, baby sleep, partner relationship changes, career vs. parenthood, siblings, and more. Parents are encouraged to discover their own parenting philosophy and are encouraged to listen to their intuition in a emotionally and intellectually safe environment.
Piko Pals aims to set the foundation for true connection and friendship, so that when parents complete our program, they continue to support each other throughout their parenting journey.

Critical thinking involves a number of processes including identifying and evaluating specific situations, being aware of any contributing circumstances and the potential results of your actions or plans. To think critically, it is important to evaluate various perspectives (yours and others) to identify the resources available to you and evaluate the short and long-term effects of taking a particular action.
The PD Training Critical Thinking Training Course provides training in identifying support structures, perspectives and arguments and how to critically evaluate the advantages and the disadvantages of a proposed plan or an action, so that the right decisions can be made the first time. Learn the difference between left brain and right brain thinking, removing the emotions from decision making, evaluating both sides of an argument and critical questioning skills.
