Raising Successful Children

Level (1) This is a parent-driven support group for parents dealing with situational, age appropriate, parent-child challenges and conflicts.

Level (2) This is a 26-week curriculum-supported parenting experience. Most participating parents have experienced some form of community intervention. Reports are provided to the referring agency to document each adult’s participation, comprehension, and demonstrated ability to transfer their knowledge to real life.

Level (3) This is a 52-week Child Abuser’s Treatment Program designed to meet L.A. County Probation Department requirements. Most adults enrolled in this program are mandated for treatment due to endangerment, neglect, or abuse of a minor. Reports and recommendations will document each adult’s participation, comprehension, and demonstrated ability to transfer their knowledge to real life.

Co-Parenting

Co-parenting usually refers to two people sharing responsibility for children after their relationship as a couple has ended. For adults with children who have separated or divorced, and are sharing the responsibility of raising a child, co-parenting classes help parents navigate this often difficult path, while keeping the child’s best interests at heart.  This is a class for separated, divorced, divorcing or never married parents, and is provided individually, in class, as a couple, or as a family treatment,  Co-parenting support is also highly recommended for newly established legal guardians, parenting grandparents and siblings, and step-parents who are unsure of their roles. We recommend that parents attend together to make the learning process more effective, and so that all parents involved in a child’s well-being are receiving and discussing the same information.
