THE KADAMPA CENTER CHILDREN'S PROGRAM

WHO is it for?  Children ages 5 years old and up are encouraged to participate.

WHO leads the classes?  Ali Burke

WHEN is it held?  Typically, on the second Sunday of each month, from 10:30 AM - NOON.

WHERE is it held?  Children and their parents and/or caregivers begin in the Gompa with everyone else.  After the opening prayers with Geshe Gelek, a Children's Program volunteer escorts participants to the Classroom Building where they participate together in the same classroom.  Parents and caregivers are welcome to join their children in the classroom building or remain in the gompa.

WHAT is it all about?  The Children's Program curriculum is based on the 16 Guidelines for Life.  For more information about the basis of what the children will do and learn during Children's Program classes, please check out the Ready, Set, Happy for Children section of the Foundation for Developing Compassion and Wisdom (FDCW), an affiliate of the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT.org), Kadampa Center's parent organization.

While we're starting off slowly, we hope to quickly build momentum!  If you have any questions or interest in helping with Kadampa Center's *new* Children's Program, please contact:  familyprogram@kadampa-center.org.
