This fall, we are delighted to introduce a new group program for parents of children ages 3 to 11 years.
Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) is an effective, evidence-based behavioural parenting intervention developed in Australia and now implemented in more than 24 countries. The program gives parents simple and practical skills and strategies that they can use to raise confident, healthy children and to build stronger family relationships. It also helps parents manage challenging behaviours.
