The Strengthening Families Program: For Parents and Youth 10-14 (SFP 10-14) is delivered in seven parent, youth, and family sessions using narrated videos portraying typical youth and parent situations with diverse families.

The program is taught with 7-10 families over seven weeks, usually in the evenings. It is recommended that the group size be smaller when dealing with families where parents have begun to have concerns over the problematic behavior of their youth.

This scientifically tested curriculum:

  • helps parents/caregivers learn nurturing skills that support their children,

  • teaches parents/caregivers how to effectively discipline and guide their youth,

  • gives youth a healthy future orientation and an increased appreciation of their parents/caregivers, and

  • teaches youth skills for dealing with stress and peer pressure.

If you are interested in participating in this program, or hosting this program in your school, church, or community center, please feel free to contact us!
