Connect Parent Group - Cariboo Chilcotin Branch
Caregiver Support and Family / Parenting
Provided by Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA)
A 10-week program to support parents of pre-teens and teens. Parents meet in small groups (10-16) with two trained group leaders for 1.5 hours each week.
Each session provides parents with a new perspective on parent-teen relationships and adolescent development. Parents watch role-plays, do exercises and discuss new ways of responding to challenging behaviours and problems. Parents receive handouts following each session with key points to remember.
Understanding that each child and each parent is different and change is part of development. Rather than teaching only one way of parenting, we help parents see choices that support healthy relationships while setting limits and helping their teen move forward.
Connect is designed for parents of teens just like you. It addresses changes that occur between parents and teens and helps them keep their relationship strong and positive. Connect is for all parents—it helps protect teens as they move forward in their journey to adulthood.
There is no charge but pre-registration is necessary. Visit the website for the current schedule and registration.
