SUMMARY:3-Day Parent & Adolescent Facilitator Training
DESCRIPTION:Location: Seven Hills Behavioral Health\, 135 Gold Star Blvd\, Worcester\, MA 01606 \nThis training is the ideal starting place for new parent educators as well as those with experience who are new to Dr. Stephen Bavolek’s Nurturing Parenting® Programs. We will use examples from and look closely at the Parents and Adolescents program which is designed to repair abusive parent-teen relationships (parents and their teens attend separate groups concurrently\, and then join as one group each week). Specific topics include: learning to live with each other\, learning to play together\, to communicate respectfully\, and to be a positive\, nurturing family. The training also addresses Nurturing Parents and Adolescents Program implementation. \nThis training is intended for Massachusetts DCF\, Community Connections\, and FRC Staff. Please email Paul N. Toruño Melville\, FNC’s Director of Training\, with any questions: pmelville@familynurturing.org.
