Parenting
is the most difficult and yet the most rewarding job
in today’s society. Parenting Programs can provide
today’s parents with the information and tools they
need to carry out their important and challenging
role. The skills parents learn are invaluable to the
lives of their children and family as a whole.
Rural Response for Healthy Children offers
a variety of parenting programs geared to meet the needs of
parents with children aged six and under. We are available to organize
any of these programs for interested groups, schools or individuals.
We
are also available to provide information regarding other parenting
resources through speaking engagements or on an individual basis.
Family Ties is a mobile program to help families enhance life skills,
self- help skills, and offers parent support and education. While parents
attend workshops such as basic cooking skills, basic sewing skills, budgeting,
healthy lifestyles, time management and making gifts, etc., their children are
participating in a children’s program. This exposure for your children is an
excellent opportunity to develop school readiness skills and enhance early
literacy.
Being a parent can be a tough job and sometimes we need a little help from our
friends to feel that we are on the right track. Many families move away from
their extended families and don’t have the support of parents, grandparents or
others. We can help families build support systems within their communities so
they can swap babysitting or just have a coffee with a friend. It is also
important for parents to remember their importance and that they need to look
after themselves.
The Family Ties program is offered on a bi-weekly basis in a variety of
locations throughout Huron County, in partnership with the Huron County Health Unit.
