The health and well-being of children and families improve when parents and caregivers have adequate resources that support opportunities for personal growth.
The Opportunity Alliance Parent Education program offers evidence and strength-based parenting education classes. The health and well-being of children and families improve when parents and caregivers have adequate resources that support opportunities for personal growth to strengthen parenting skills. Parenting education classes provide parents and caregivers an opportunity to develop and strengthen parenting skills through classes that blend instructions, interactive activities, open and nonjudgmental exchange of ideas, support and resources.
Parent education costs are based on a sliding scale following the Federal Poverty Level. Our goal is to assure anyone in need of a parenting class, will not be turned away due to financial concerns and will be given the opportunity to participate in classes.
