An ongoing, weekly facilitated support group for parents / caregivers wanting to improve their parenting skills by exploring their options in a nurturing, non-judgmental environment. While the parents / caregivers meet with a facilitator in one room the children are also facilitated in a separate children's program of their own with developmentally appropriate preschool activities to enhance their development.
Some of the issues addressed in the parents' group might include:
- Parenting concerns raised by the participants.
- Self-esteem building.
- Stress and anger management.
- Health and nutrition.
The Family Empowerment program is under the North Delta Family Resource Centre umbrella. It was developed for parents / caregivers with children 0-6 years of age who want to increase their support network and develop their parenting skills. |
