Brooklyn Branch

Combined Meeting Room/Conference Room (75)

Active Parenting teaches parents the importance of raising empowered and resilient children, who will then be less vulnerable to the peer pressures to make unhealthy life choices.

Participants must attend all four sessions.  If you are unable to arrange for childcare, age appropriate activities will be provided in the adjoining room for grades K-5 during the sessions.  Please let us know if you are bringing children so that we can plan accordingly.

Presented by Recovery Resources, Active Parenting teaches parents the importance of raising empowered and resilient children, who will then be less vulnerable to the peer pressures to make unhealthy life choices. This program helps parents improve relationships with their children, develop new parenting skills, and identify effective techniques for navigating family transitions. This is a cumulative 8 hour prevention/education class designed to provide educational, instructional resources on skill building and developmental assets as they relate to growing children. The overall goal of the program is to enable consumers to maximize the likelihood that their children grow up to be independent, autonomous and emotionally healthy adults.
