Welcome to Dover Mothers' Association

The Dover Mothers’ Association (“DMA”) is a volunteer-led, nonprofit social group for mothers in Dover, MA. Whether you're new to town, newly a mom, or just looking to connect- you're welcome here!

Why Join?
- Make friends across stages of motherhood
- Attend events like glass fusing, book club, restaurant nights, and playground outings
- Stay connected with what's going on around town
- Get quick answers and support from other local moms

We offer a wide variety of programs and events for members, including children and family activities, mom social events, and playgroups. There is also an opportunity to find others who share your interests and connect, whether it's walking, reading, or pickleball. We also host a variety of community and charitable events, including a pancake breakfast and the Dover Cares initiative.

The DMA is proud to be an active and integral part of our community for the past 20 years. What began as a small playgroup for mothers with young children has grown into an organization with more than 200 members. Our members often rely on one another for recommendations, insight, and experience in our online chat. Events provide opportunities to socialize, make friends, and be a part of the community. Lasting friendships (both for children and for parents) have been borne out of our playgroups. The DMA continues to grow each year, thanks to the hard-work and dedication of its volunteers.

We hope you’ll consider becoming a member today.
