Active Parenting of Teens

Active Parenting of Teens (APT) is an evidence-based curriculum that caters to the needs of parents and caregivers. APT gives participants insight into adolescent brain development and explores the effectiveness of different parenting styles. Participants also receive practical information to improve the quality of communication within the family which will prepare parents/caregivers to speak to their teens on subjects such as drugs, violence, and sexuality. Classes are offered in both English and Spanish.

“The course was very informative and helpful, the strategies learned from this course are more effective than I imagined and practicing scenarios in the class before following through with the new strategies was appreciated”
