Our Story
Parenting Education Network, Ghana (PEN-GHANA) was established out of a profound recognition of the growing challenges faced by parents in the rapidly evolving society of today. With an increasing number of parents struggling to understand the nuances of child development and effective parenting styles, there was a clear need for an organization dedicated to addressing these issues.
Founded by a passionate young man, Mr. Christian Ohene Ayisi, PEN-GHANA aims to provide comprehensive support and education to parents and children, especially those who are most vulnerable to parenting challenges. The founder recognised that many parents lacked access to reliable information and resources on children's social and emotional development, which are crucial for nurturing well-rounded individuals.
Since our inception, we have worked tirelessly to create awareness about the importance of effective parenting and have reached hundreds of parents and children through our various programmes and initiatives. We continue to expand our reach and impact across communities in Ghana.
