Our kids face unprecedented pressures! Family disintegration. Drugs. Alcohol. Violence. Sex. It's no wonder so many of them have given up and started to reflect the troubles in society. Parent Project(r) is a comprehensive, award-winning educational series of weekly classes, designed specifically for parents with difficult or out-of-control children. The program focuses on the most destructive of behaviors to get them back "on track."

An overwhelming majority of parents deeply love and care about their children. Unfortunately, repeated frustrations and failures combined with the daily stresses of life often lead to feelings of helplessness. The straightforward, step-by-step action plans presented in the curricula allow parents to take immediate steps toward preventing or intervening in their children's negative choices.

The Parent Project delivers results!

  • Prevents (or stops) children from using alcohol, other drugs and tobacco.
  • Stops parent-child arguments forever!
  • Improves children's grades and school attendance.
  • Recognizes and prevents gang involvement.
  • Teaches how to "out-will" a strong-willed child.

Why the Parent Project?

  • Thirteen years in development, the Parent Project is the only course of its kind, providing activity-based instruction, support groups, and curriculum addressing the most destructive behaviors.
  • Over 100,000 families have attended Parent Project classes nationwide.
  • The Parent Project is the largest court-mandated diversion program in Los Angeles and San Bernardino Counties, and has been adopted for statewide use in Idaho.
  • With a Proven track record, the Parent Project reduced juvenile crime by 1/3, while significantly increasing both school attendance and performance.

What the Research Says:
In one study (Minidoka County, Idaho, 1996), county probation departments reported one-year recidivism rates as low as 5%, and a 15% reduction in juvenile petitions after mandating Parent ProjectŠ classes. School dropout and expulsion rates fell by 95%!
