Help me Grow: Parenting education to eligible/enrolled participants, "Parenting Attachment, Child Development & Family Strengthening Curriculum"

OCTF The Resilient Family Project is coordinated by Catholic Charities and funded by an Ohio Children’s Trust Fund grant.  It has two components.  Parent Cafes are fun, relaxed gatherings that encourage parent-to-parent learning through sharing, guided small & large group discussion, and reflection on parenting joys and challenges.  Discussion focuses on “protective factors” which have proven to help families stay strong – even under difficult circumstances.  Two-hour parent cafes welcome all parents of children ages 3-18.  Kinship caregivers, single moms, and adoptive parents are especially encouraged to participate in a café experience.   Triple P (Positive Parenting Program) small group discussions are offered on specific topics.  These topics are 1) Managing Fighting and Aggression, 2) Hassle-Free Shopping with Children, 3) Dealing with Disobedience, and 4) Developing Good Bedtime Routines.  This project serves families in Ashland, Holmes, & Wayne counties.  Any person interested in learning more about this program or registering for upcoming events, should contact Catholic Charities at 330-317-1884
