Are you looking for an evidence-based parenting curriculum you can provide to families in your setting? Do you want to support parental mastery as parents learn and practice new skills with their peers?
The Touchpoints Parenting Program is a practical, preventive curriculum designed to support positive parent-child relationships. The curriculum consists of a series of parenting modules that early childhood leaders can facilitate in their program to come alongside parents as they learn about their children and address issues facing their families. Module topics include: understanding your child’s development, keeping children safe and healthy, exploring your family’s culture, and discipline.
The Touchpoints Parenting Program meets the Head Start Program Performance Standard for Parenting Curriculum.
This 22-hour intensive, online course teaches participants how to implement the Touchpoints Parenting Program with families in their program. The training is designed for all professionals who work with families of young children and want to lead parenting programs or groups.
