PA Winslow Based Programs
Community Based Parent Education
Parent education classes are offered throughout the state in the communities where our clients live. The classes are always taught with evidence based materials that have been proven effective.
At times the entire family, including children, adolescents, teens, extended family members, and adoptive and foster parents are invited to attend.
The parent education classes can be life changing for the members as they learn positive and collaborative methods to best deal with their children and parents.
