Nurturing Parenting Program
CAC’s parenting classes are based on the “Nurturing Parenting Program,” an evidence-based curriculum developed by Dr. Stephen Bavolek, Ph.D. for the treatment and prevention of child abuse. It consists of weekly classes (day and evening) in English, Spanish and Creole. Free childcare is also provided. The classes are offered for both court ordered and non – court ordered families and there is no charge for these services.
