about
This workshop supports the social emotional development of children by helping to reduce challenging behaviors while increasing positive behaviors.
The parenting class was phenomenal. It was informative as well as entertaining. It showed me more to do and better tactics to use with my son and daughter. Learning that it takes time to change the behavior gives me more hope that it works. Plus the amount of resources available were amazing.
