| Description |
CCWF trains service providers as Facilitators of the International Child/Parenting Development Program (ICDP-USA) of Parenting Learning Groups, which support families to strengthen their parent-child interaction.
“The Best Start” is an evidence-based program which strengthens psycho-social competencies of professionals working with parents and caregivers in their practice, as well as in their facilitation of Parent Learning
Groups.
The program curriculum covers strengthening Parent + Child skills from Empathy to Social/Emotional Learning to Cognitive Development to Self-Regulation/Discipline. Facilitators help parents share experiences and
enjoy learning from one another as they practice implementing the ICDP 8 Guidelines by modeling positive adult-child (and adult-adult) behaviors,
communications, interactions, and relationships. As parents gain confidence and empowerment, they support their children's positive development and success in family, school, and community.
The trauma-informed, community- based program is adapted and
effective for all Parents/Caregivers and Families! (Facilitator Trainees will
be invited to become Certified Facilitators, and ultimately Certified Trainers.)
*ALL 3 DAYS (5/3,4,11/2019) are REQUIRED in order to receive ANY IL EI credits.
