Parenting Classes
SCAN offers a series of classes using the Nurturing Parenting Program® curriculum that help families learn how to care for one another. In these classes, participants learn about: child development, how to communicate physical and emotional needs, establishing routines for regular family activities, effective discipline methods, handling stress, and building family cohesion.
These classes are offered free of cost in both English and Spanish. There are no eligibility or residency requirements. Classes meet from 6:00 – 8:30 PM one night a week for 8 weeks. SCAN staff and volunteers facilitate the class and provide a light dinner and childcare for all participating families. Interested parents must contact the Parent Education Coordinator to register and schedule an intake interview. Registration generally starts one month prior to class start date.
