    Services included within this program consist of Promoting First Relationships (PFR), Positive Parenting Program (Triple P), Readiness to Learn (RTL) and Incredible Years® Parenting Program. PFR is an evidence-based training program that is dedicated to promoting children’s social-emotional development through responsive, nurturing caregiver-child relationships. Furthermore, the staff at HopeSparks uses practical, in-depth, effective strategies for promoting secure and healthy relationships between caregivers and young children, from birth to three years old. In addition, Positive Parenting Program is one of the most effective evidence-based parenting programs in the world. Triple P gives parents simple and practical strategies to help them confidently manage their children’s behavior, promote healthy development and strengthen the parent-child relationship. What I found interesting is that Triple P is currently used in 25 countries and has been shown to work across cultures, socio-economic groups and in many different kinds of family structures.All in all, my experience at HopeSparks was rather very informing and important to know because there are families out there who are in need of help but lack the knowledge and resources to get that. HopeSparks truly provided an exceptional programs/services for children and families out there. There are many services/programs that they provide that can meet ones need in improving an individual’s state whether its attendance, mental health, eating disorders etc... I believe that in order to see a higher percentage of improvements there needs to be more of an awareness created that way it will guide people on where to…

    Parents who have received BPT were taught to “identify and manipulate the antecedents and consequences of” their child’s behaviors and then target and monitor any problematic behaviors. These parents were also taught how to “reward prosocial behaviors through praise, positive attention, and tangible rewards.” This article reviewed 28 studies which were completed using BPT, 1,161 children were treated during these studies. Not only did BPT effectively improve the parents ratings of the child’s problem behaviors, but the parents also reported an improvement in their stress level and an increase in social behavior. This treatment does have downfalls, for one the families did not equally benefit from this treatment.

    I do believe that positive parenting techniques work because my mom uses it on my younger siblings and still does for me. When I was younger my mom would ask me to do a chore and when I finished she would encourage me and/or take me out for a treat. Now that I’m older I do chores without being asks and without excepting an a treat, although she still encourages me and thanks me by telling me how appreciative she is for what I do. Because I have seen how great this technique works I want to use it on my kids someday.…
