Offering Nurturing Parenting® Professional 3 Day Facilitator Training for Nurturing Parenting® Programs
The Nurturing Parenting® Programs are a family-centered trauma-informed initiative designed to build nurturing parenting skills as an alternative to abusive and neglecting parenting and child-rearing practices.
The long term goals are to prevent recidivism in families receiving social services, lower the rate of multi-parent teenage pregnancies, reduce the rate of juvenile delinquency and alcohol abuse, and stop the intergenerational cycle of child abuse by teaching positive parenting behaviors.
Uniqueness of the Nurturing Parenting®/Evidence Based Programs
The Nurturing Parenting® Programs have several unique features that make the programs effective:
- Nurturing Parenting® Programs are designed for the treatment and prevention of child abuse and neglect. The programs are utilized nationwide to improve the lives of families ravaged by dysfunction.
- The Nurturing Parenting® Programs are family based interventions where parents and their children learn similar knowledge and skills for improving the quality of their lives.
- Built in assessment strategies allow facilitators and parents to chart the course of their successes.
- Families can attend group-based programs, home-based programs, or a combination of group and home-based sessions.
- The flexibility within the structure of the programs allows facilitators to ensure the specific needs of families are being met.
- The nurturing philosophy of non-violent parenting focuses on the development of empathy, self-worth, self-awareness, empowerment, discipline with dignity, appropriate family roles and age-appropriate expectations of children's development.
- Lesson guides, parent handbooks, and assessment inventories provide facilitators with individual lessons designed to promote individual and family growth.
- Parents and children learn how to have fun as a family.
