Since 2001, Kohl's has partnered with Sanford Children's to provide support for kids' health and wellness. In this partnership, we've developed an abundance of parenting classes for caregivers, parents and grandparents that are intended to educate all who attend on positive parenting techniques and create understanding of their children’s emotional and mental well-being.
Additional classes will be introduced throughout the course of the year to support the needs of the caregivers of the children in the communities served by Sanford Children’s.
