Our parenting philosophy teaches the importance of showing children positive attention through play, praise and rewards. When discipline is necessary, it is done in a non-violent way. Positive parenting skills are taught through weekly parenting classes, groups, individual counseling, hands-on parenting training, and role modeling and peer support. The parents also spend a minimum of two-hours a week in the childcare with their children and staff. We feel the time the parent spends parenting their child in a supervised environment will better prepare them for when they re-enter the community.
