"The Strengthening Families Program is a 14-session, evidence-based parenting skills, children's social skills, and family life skills training program specifically designed for high-risk families. Parents and children participate in SFP, both separately and together."
"Active Parenting Publishers has provided award-winning, video-based parenting classes for helping professionals since 1983. Our evidence-based programs cover topics including parenting programs, step parenting, divorce, school success, and character education."
*This program contains a LGBT-LGA supplement.
"STEP/Teen has been helping parents build close family relationships for over thirty years! This third edition of STEP/Teen not only helps parents with everyday problems such as messy rooms, moods, and meals, it also confronts today's more complex issues-drug use, sex, gangs and depression."
"Family Development Resources has been providing cost-effective, validated approaches to help treat and prevent child abuse and neglect for over 30 years. Families learn new attitudes and skills that reduce dysfunction in families, with follow-up studies indicating low rates of recidivism."
"At Challenge Success, we believe that our society has become too focused on grades, test scores, and performance, leaving little time for kids to develop the necessary skills to become resilient, ethical, and motivated learners. We provide families and schools with the practical, research-based tools they need to create a more balanced and academically fulfilling life for kids."
"The entire Creating Lasting Families Curriculum (CLFC) curriculum series now includes modules for youth, adults, families and couples interested in personal and family growth and healthy development. All CLFC programs have demonstrated strong empirical results in a number of scientific studies published in a variety of peer-reviewed journals. Results include delayed onset of alcohol, tobacco and other drug use by youth, reduced substance use by youth and adults, reduced violent behavior, increases in knowledge of HIV & other sexually transmitted diseases prevention, enhanced communications and refusal skills, enhanced emotional awareness and expression, enhanced marriage relationships, enhanced fatherhood skills, enhanced substance abuse recovery, and enhanced reentry skills and reduced prison recidivism."
