Our professional Family Educators provide parents with supportive, up-to-date information and guidance to better understand and address today’s family issues. Our offerings include:

Educational Classes vary from single to multiple sessions and are offered day and/or night. Informal class sessions focus on topics from birth through adolescence and some classes include both parent and child.

Private Consultations provide opportunity for confidential discussions of parent issues. Flexible dates and times fit your schedule. Family Educators give professional, practical advice on child development, behavioral issues or basic parenting challenges.

Community Speakers’ Bureau offers topic-related talks that are tailored to the hosting organization’s needs. Our family educators are available to speak on parenting issues to civic, school, business, faith-based or community agencies.

Drop-in Support for brief questions that may include, sleeping challenges, behavioral issues, discipline questions, or developmental inquiries. Family educators offer this service at our offices and at community locations, such as child care centers, schools, or community centers.
