“Dear PoPville,

There was a post a few months ago “what should every brand new homeowner in DC know?” I’m really curious to ask a variant on that question – what should every brand new parent in DC know?

We’re having our first kid soon – what groups should we join? What government benefits exist? What amazing programs are there? What do people wish they’d known when their kids were younger?”
