What will families receive?
Orange County parents and caregivers will be provided with free access to Triple P Online (designed for parents of children aged approximately 2-12 years) and/or Teen Triple P Online (designed for parents of 12 to 16-year-olds). Parents can work through the modules at their own pace, using their internet-connected phone, computer, or other device.
Each module includes an interactive mix of videos, brief activities, ongoing self-assessments, and ways to practice positive parenting skills. Parents can also request additional support, also at no cost, from an OCHCA Parent Liaison. This can be done via the parent website contact form or through email following registration.
OCHCA Triple P Parent Liaisons
A team of specially trained Parent Liaisons will be available to assist parents and caregivers who have general parenting questions or who would like to be connected with other County services. To access the program, parents and caregivers can submit a request to OCHCA for “real time” assistance, and they will be matched with a Parent Liaison within 1-2 business days. In a crisis situation, a Parent Liaison can quickly connect the parent/caregivers with OCHCA crisis management services.
What’s included in each module?
The Triple P Online for children program has 8 modules, plus an extra COVID-19 module. The Teen Triple P Online has 6 modules and an extra COVID-19 module.
Benefits include:
-
Empowerment & Flexibility: Triple P Online encourages parents to set goals for themselves and to decide what steps they would like to try within their family. The program respects parents’ values, beliefs, and needs, and parents are encouraged to tailor strategies to suit their individual situation.
-
Relationship building: Parents progress through the program one module at a time and must complete each section before moving on to the next module. Parents will learn useful tips and strategies for how to build a good relationship with their children and to encourage behaviors they want, before learning how to manage disobedience. The material presented in each module is short and easy-to-use.
-
Speed and convenience: Parents who are not able to receive face-to-face services can benefit from starting the online program. It is ideal for busy or isolated parents, co-parents, grandparents, and other caregivers.
-
Privacy: For parents who feel uncomfortable seeking additional parenting support, Triple P Online can be used independently.
