Positive Solutions for Families
Positive approaches to promote positive behavior.
Positive Solutions provides strategies to encourage your child’s social and emotional skills, to understand the meaning of behavior, and to use positive approaches to help your child grow and learn.
Throughout this engaging workshop, caregivers learn how to promote their child’s social and emotional skills, understand any problem behaviors, and use positive approaches to help their children learn appropriate behavior.
This evidence-based training program is offered twice a year. Sessions are seven weeks long and meet once a week for 1.5 hours. Families receive a workbook, social- emotional-based learning book for children, and a Family Routine Guide. Play sessions are offered for children during the program.
