Have you attended one of our free Active Parenting Workshops yet? If you’re looking for new ways to protect and prepare your kids to survive and thrive in this fast-paced, high-tech, diverse, democratic society, then we have the program for you! We discuss non-violent discipline techniques that teach responsibility and strategies to improve communication, cooperation and raise healthy drug-free kids.

We have two different workshops. Active Parenting, 4th edition is for parents of kids ages five through 12. Active Parenting of Teens is for parents of kids ages 12-18. For parents with children ages five through 12, our lessons will teach active parenting skills, winning cooperation, responsibility and discipline, understanding and redirecting misbehavior as well as building courage, character and self-esteem. For parents with children ages 12 through 18, our lessons will teach active parenting for teens, winning cooperation, responsibility and discipline, building courage, building self-esteem and preventing drug use and other risky behavior.

Held year-round and throughout Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tolleson and Glendale, our two-hour workshops consist of six different sessions over a one- to two-month time span. We offer each workshop in either English or Spanish. The workshops are free, but registration is required.
