GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOTV) - MOPS stands for "Mothers of Preschoolers," but don't let that confuse you. MOPS is about meeting the needs of every mom of a child with children from from infants through kindergarten. Whether you're urban, suburban, rural, stay-at-home, working, teen, adoptive, special-needs, single or married, MOPS offers something for everyone.

Being moms is what brings these groups together and allows women to build a community. MOPS allows you to meet and build friendships with other moms and share the ups and downs of motherhood with those who can relate.

MOPS groups meet at churches across the United States and there are dozens of local chapters around West Michigan. Click here for a directory of locations to find a MOPS group meeting near you.
