Featured Tips

Parents play an important role in fostering healthy self-esteem which is like armor to a sometimes frustrating world. Help build your child’s healthy self-esteem by listening to your child’s thoughts and feelings; give praise and recognition for your child’s effort. Most importantly, create a safe and loving home environment.

Lives Changed

When I started my 12-week Positive Parenting Program, I began to realize what it meant to be a good parent. I kept going to the classes and each week I learned new ways to raise my son. Before long, my friends at The Family Tree had helped me figure out my strengths and find the confidence to use them. For the first time, I saw the possibilities of a happy, healthy future with my son.
