Parents Helping Parents: Empowering parents to nurture children and build stronger families
Parents Helping Parents runs a network of support groups for parents who want to improve relationships with their children. Parents come to our support groups seeking encouragement and feedback on parenting-related issues. Shared leadership, trust, respect, responsibility, and positive parenting are key components of our support groups. Our groups provided a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for creating positive and caring peer relationships. Our approach is preventative; once the emotional support of the parent has been strengthened, a parent is better able to actively guide and nurture the family.
We need a volunteer (YOU!) to act as a group facilitator for an online parent support group. As a facilitator, you will be maintaining the safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment which characterizes our support groups.
Requirements:
- Must demonstrate an understanding of stressors within a family that could potentially trigger child abuse and/or neglect
- Have previous experience working with parents and families
Commitment:
- 12 hours of online training via Zoom.
- 6 month commitment to facilitating groups is required.
- Willingness to participate in monthly check in calls with staff.
- Willingness to collect and submit Quarterly Report and Annual Report data.
- Group meets online. Friday's at Noon EST.
