A new MOPS (mothers of preschoolers) group is starting up this fall in Rochester.

MOPS is an international program dedicated to bringing resources, support, and encouragement to young mothers through local chapters. Fulton County’s group, Grace MOPS, will meet monthly at Grace United Methodist Church in Rochester and is open to mothers with school-age or younger children.

A $500 grant from the Fulton County Community Foundation helped support the startup costs for Grace MOPS.
