The Family Resource Center offers parental support groups designed to teach parents new skills and coping strategies to make parenting their and children easier. The program focuses on improving child/parent, family/school relationships and discovering the many community resources available. Our parental support groups highlight new strategies to cope with doing homework, talking to teachers effectively, dealing with food or sleep issues, and how to parent as a team.  By teaching parents to detect and strategically deal with family situations, we are providing our next generation of children with the tools to effectively cope and reach their potential of success.

Its Objectives & Goals

This project proposes a series of interactive workshops allowing the participants the opportunity to vocalize their concerns, obtain valuable information and learn practical strategies to cognitively instruct their children.

          We believe that many parents would welcome new strategies on how to develop their skills and how to address discipline issues. We believe that other competencies such as sharing, co-operation, decision-making and problem solving are of interest to our parents. Parental workshops would include topics such as discipline, advocacy and the encouragement of multi-skill development.

The Groups accept 12 members maximum. 

Our next sessions will begin in September 20, 2010. 

The group meets every Monday evening from

 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
