Merger means Care for the Family is even more positive about parenting
Care for the Family recently joined forces with Positive Parenting, a charity which has similar aims and ethos in supporting parents in the ups and downs of family life. The merger means even more families will be able to access high quality parenting resources.
Positive Parenting’s parenting courses and resources are already being used in communities around the country. The range of material is well grounded in research and has a practical, common sense and ‘user-friendly’ approach.
It can be used in a variety of settings, including schools, children’s centres, churches, community groups and prisons. To help people make the most of the resources, Positive Parenting also offers training to facilitators of parenting groups.
