Brief Description:
The Triple P-Positive Parenting Program has been rated by the CEBC in the areas of Parent Training and Prevention (Secondary). The Triple P-Positive Parenting Program is a multi-level system of parenting and family support. It aims to prevent severe behavioral, emotional and developmental problems in children by enhancing the knowledge, skills, and confidence of parents. It can be provided individually, in a group, or a self-directed format. It incorporates five levels of intervention on a tiered continuum of increasing strength for parents of children and adolescents from birth to age 16. The multi-disciplinary nature of the program allows utilization of the existing professional workforce in the task of promoting competent parenting. The program targets five different developmental periods from infancy to adolescence. Within each developmental period, the reach of the intervention can vary from being very broad (targeting an entire population) to quite narrow (targeting only high-risk children). Triple P-Positive Parenting Program enables practitioners to determine the scope of the intervention given their own service priorities and funding.
