The Evidence Based Practice Institute is planning to host a second training in the Triple P - Positive Parenting Program. This training is intended for providers who work with families with children 0-12 years old who have mild to moderate behavior problems and parents who would benefit from intensive training in positive parenting skills.
Triple P or the Positive Parenting Program is an intervention with a public health orientation, designed to be delivered by professionals and paraprofessionals, within service settings and at levels of intensity that are matched to each family's individual needs. Triple P is designed for parents of children ages 0-12, but program variants are also available for parents of teens, families at risk for child abuse and neglect, and families of children with developmental disabilities. In addition, Triple P is a multi-level intervention which is designed to address a range of different types of issues parents and caregivers may have with their child(ren). These levels range from a "Universal" intervention based on media strategies to an intensive "Enhanced" program for families whose parenting is complicated by sources of family distress or for parents at risk for child maltreatment.
This training will be for either Level 4: Standard Triple P which is a brief and flexible consultation for caregivers of children with mild to moderate behavioral difficulties and includes active skills training for parents. These are typically caregivers of children with behavior problems such as aggressive or oppositional behavior or parents who have questions about child development.
The Triple P training is scheduled for October 24th, 25th, & 26th. Participants will need to attend all three full days with a mandatory followup small group certification session. The cost for all training sessions and starter Triple P materials and handbooks is $1500 per attendee.
The training will be held on the UW Seattle Campus. Please email Julia Revillion Cox if you are interested in registering for the training.
