Communities Empowering Parents

"Communities Empowering Parents" addresses factors associated with future substance abuse in children by reducing risk factors and strengthening protective factors in children and the family. The strategy is to mobilize local neighborhoods and/or elementary and junior high schools to empower parents by training them in behavioral parenting techniques, relationship building, communication skills and age-appropriate developmental expectancies.

Protective factors in children are strengthened through classes that address living skills and social activities conducted in a drug-free environment. Classes are held in familiar settings and taught by teachers and community leaders. Programs receive clinical consultation from Project Reality's prevention specialists.
