Parents Need Resources and Support

NPEN encourages parents to seek information and skills to become more effective parents and family members.

Parenting educators are skilled professionals who partner with parents, families, and communities, law and policymakers, and organizations to optimize family well-being. Parent education programs offer parents the opportunity to gain essential skills and feel a renewed sense of confidence in their parenting goals and strategies. Through discussion of approaches to parenting, educators cover a broad range of parenting topics as well as provide the opportunity to address individual challenges. Parent educators lend the support that bolsters and nurtures the whole family through the lifelong parenting journey.
