Triple P Positive Parenting: Triple P is a free online parenting program for anyone who is interested. Triple P provides simple and practical strategies to help parents raise happy, confident kids, manage misbehavior, encourage behaviors you want to see in your child, take care of yourself as a parent, and to feel confident that you're doing the right things!
Triple P does not tell you HOW to be a parent. It is more like a toolbox of ideas. You choose the strategies you need. You choose the way you want to use them. It is all about what works best for you and your family
To learn more about the program check out their website HERE. You can also contact Lisa Buchwitz, Triple P Case Manager from the Children’s Aid Society at 814-765-2686 EXT 232 or 814-553-1557.
