***This three-day training workshop will take place at Seven Hills Behavioral Health on Gold Star Bld. in Worcester, Massachusetts - Attendees must commit to attending all three days of training***

VENUE:

This training will take place in-person over three days at the Plymouth Family Resource Center.

DESCRIPTION:

This training is the ideal starting place for new parent educators as well as those with experience who are new to Dr. Stephen Bavolek's Nurturing Parenting® Programs. We will use examples from and look closely at the Parents and Adolescents program which is designed to repair abusive parent-teen relationships (parents and their teens attend separate groups concurrently, and then join as one group each week). Specific topics include: learning to live with each other, learning to play together, to communicate respectfully, and to be a positive, nurturing family. The training also addresses Nurturing Parents and Adolescents Program implementation.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES:

Through a mix of small and large group discussions, participatory lecture, interactive exercises, and group practice session activities, participants will:

• gain understanding in the Philosophy of Nurturing Parenting® Programs

• learn the steps for implementing Nurturing Families® Programs with families

• learn effective methods for increasing positive parenting and enhancing relationships

• learn a strength-based approach to working with families

• increase their readiness to facilitate the Nurturing Families® Programs
