Have you signed up for one of our upcoming six-week Active Parenting Now or Active Parenting of Teens parent workshops yet? We have a variety of locations throughout Glendale, Phoenix and Scottsdale, and our Program Managers, Kim and Theresa, can’t wait to meet their new groups of parents!

 

3 Ways Everyone in Your House Benefits:

  • Parents: Our kids don’t come with manuals, but the Active Parenting series helps parents make sense out of helpful ways to successfully handle conflicts, problem-solving and teaching responsibility. Plus, you’ll find out what your parenting style is and how it impacts your family life. (Check out all of the other great workshop content topics!)
     
  • Kids: One of the things we tell kids is that they should encourage their parents to attend the workshops because it means they’ll have more freedom. What we really mean: Parents will learn tips to set effective boundaries and rules so that kids learn responsibility and then receive more freedom!
     
  • Families: The Active Parenting programs have been around for 30 years, had more than a million families participate and are National Registry of Evidence-based Programs. Studies have tracked participants over the long-term and found lasting benefits as a result, including better decision-making skills and more sound judgment for teens, and overall closer family relationships. The investment of 12 hours pays off with benefits lasting a decade.
