Provided by Simon Fraser University

A 10-week parenting program to support parents of preteens and teens with behavioural and emotional problems.
An evidence based, 10 week group for caregivers that focuses on strengthening the caregiver – child relationship.

The program promotes social, emotional, and behavioural adjustment and attachment security in families, a critical foundation for overall wellbeing.

The program is offered both virtually and in person, and runs 3-4 times a year. An online version is also available.

Eligibility: For caregivers who have children between 9-18 years old. Open to anyone living in BC. Co-developed by the Maples Adolescent Treatment Centre and Simon Fraser University.
