Welcome to Dover Mothers' Association

The Dover Mothers’ Association (“DMA”) is a not-for-profit volunteer organization, serving parents of children in the town of Dover, Massachusetts. We offer a wide variety of programs and events for members, including children and family activities, adult social events, couples’ events, and playgroups.  We also host community events and participate in community outreach, including the Dover CARES initiative.

The DMA is proud to be an active and integral part of our community for over 20 years.  From planning events and activities for our members, their children, and our community to establishing and maintaining a vast network of neighbors, the DMA continues to grow and thrive.  What began as a small playgroup for mothers with young children has grown into an organization with more than 250 members.  Our members often rely on one another for recommendations, insight, and experience in our online forum.  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.

The annual membership fee is $47*. Membership is only available to parents (no businesses) living in Dover, Massachusetts (or those who will be moving to Dover, Massachusetts within a few months).

Included in this membership fee will be access to the DMA’s secure online community, which will include: regular updates on DMA activities; invitations to member events; comprehensive calendar of community, school, and town library events; discussion forum and membership directory. This fee may also be used to pay for certain expenses and costs relating to member events and activities. Please note that there may be additional charges to attend certain programs and special events. Further, a portion of the membership fee covers the DMA’s organizational and operating expenses. This may include the cost of insuring the organization, and the cost of any legal and accounting charges.

*Membership auto-renews one year from registration date.
