The Nurturing Parenting Program provides in-home parent education and case management services designed to build nurturing skills as alternatives to negative parenting attitudes and practices. Trained facilitators use evidence-based assessment tools and curriculum materials to identify high risk parenting practices and beliefs that could potentially put a child at risk. Facilitators customize the curriculum to build on parenting strengths and address weaknesses in order to reduce or eliminate the need for future intervention. These services are free of charge and are open to parents, foster/kinship parents, grandparents, and anyone else caring for children in their custody.
