About the Parenting Journey

The Parenting Journey is a non-traditional parent education and support program developed by The Family Center. It is geared towards parents who have not had the kind of upbringing of their own that serves as a resource and provides emotional sustenance in their relationships with their own children.

The Parenting Journey offers an opportunity for parents to develop themselves as nurtured and nurturing people, capable of making responsible and informed choices in rearing their children. It focuses on promoting attitudes that enhance good parenting: respect, helping each other, listening empathetically, and being curious. It emphasizes the parent as a person rather than focusing on child behavior and development. As parents learn about themselves, and about what worked and didn't work in their own experience of being parented, they begin to draw conclusions about how to be successful parents with their children.
