Family Support Services

Parents are a child’s first and most important teachers. Smart Start family support services and parent education are available to all families with young children. Special attention is given to families whose life circumstances make it more challenging to provide the environment their children need and deserve. Smart Start Rowan provides families with the education, information and resources they need as their child’s first and most important teacher.

FREE weekly playgroups located throughout the community. Parents and Children will have the opportunity to have hands on experiences with developmentally appropriate materials, books and learning games.

Triple P- Positive Parenting Program:
Triple P is a parenting program, but it doesn’t tell parents how to be a parent. It’s more like a toolbox of ideas. Triple P gives parents simple and practical strategies to help them build strong, healthy relationships, confidently manage their children’s behavior, and prevent problems with their children’s development. Parents choose the strategies they need, and they choose the way they want to use them. It’s all about making Triple P work for each individual family.

Smart Start Rowan now offers Triple P Seminars: The Power of Positive Parenting; Raising Confident, Competent Children; and Raising Resilient Children. Each seminar is an hour in length, plus discussion time.

Triple P- Programa de Crianza Positiva

Triple P es un programa para padres, pero no les dice a los padres cómo ser padres. Es más como una caja de herramientas de ideas. Triple P brinda a los padres estrategias simples y prácticas para ayudarlos a construir relaciones sólidas y saludables, manejar con confianza el comportamiento de sus hijos y prevenir problemas con el desarrollo de sus hijos. Los padre’s eligen las estrategias que necesitan y eligen la forma en que quieren usarlas. Se trata de hacer que Triple P funcione para cada familia individual.
