L.A. Parent Magazine – A Trusted Resource
It’s always a pleasure to be able to share resources with our TOG Parents who reside in the Los Angeles area. After working directly with L.A. Parent Magazine over the past several months, I wanted to tell you about this valuable publication, which I know will add to your family life through events and activities to enrich your children’s experiences and your own.
L.A. Parent Magazine has been a resource for Los Angeles parents since 1980. With an average of 170,000 readers and distribution at more than 2,000 locations each month, it’s no wonder they are such a trusted source. What began as a guide for local events and information on fun things to do with your kids has blossomed into a full-fledged parenting resource on a wide range of topics—from education and special needs to managing emotions and emotional intelligence.
A staple for parents of preschool and elementary-age children, the magazine is just as valuable for parents of older kids. I’ve been fortunate to be able to get to know owners Elena Epstein, director of content and strategic partnerships, and Ron Epstein, publisher of L.A. Parent, and it’s clear this is more than a business for them, it’s their passion. Through their years of journalism experience, they have created a publication that covers the whole spectrum of parenting, from birth through college. Even as a parent of adult children, I still find value in reading the articles that editor Christina Elston curates so thoughtfully. Their advocacy for the arts and education speaks to my own passions in these fields.
Each year they provide special supplements to the magazine with their Education Guide (covering private and public schools with articles on early education, elementary, middle and high school, and the road to collage) and Your Child with Special Needs (information on new therapies and treatment options, as well as enrichment and educational resources for children with special needs).
L.A. Parent Magazine is completely free and can be found online and in print at local businesses and schools around Los Angeles. For a fee, you can subscribe and have the magazine delivered to your home. There is nothing else like it in Los Angeles County.
