Triple P – Positive Parenting Program
Triple P is a parenting and family support system designed to prevent – as well as treat – behavioral and emotional problems in children and teenagers. It aims to prevent problems in the family, school, and community before they arise and create family environments that encourage children to realize their potential.
Triple P is a free parenting course that gives parents simple and practical strategies to help them confidently manage their children’s behavior, prevent developing problems and build strong, healthy relationships.

Community Resiliency Model (CRM)
CRM is a simple set of mental wellness skills that can be readily learned and practiced, enhancing the ability to withstand stress. In CRM trainings, participants learn to understand the biology of their reactions to stress and trauma; they learn skills to track sensations connected to their wellbeing or resilience. CRM has been shown to help relieve stress and anxiety across a wide range of populations including children, first responders, educators, and community aid workers.
Connections Matter
Connections Matter is a training designed to engage community members in building caring connections to improve resiliency. Trainings are interactive and discussion-based which provides participants with a better understanding of trauma, brain development, resilience, and concrete knowledge about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). Connections Matter has been approved for Continuing Education Credits for LPC, LMFT, MSW, and BFTS.
