Evidence Based Parenting Programs

Parenting Programs and Health Disparity
Parenting preventive programs are beneficial health measures that promote wellbeing outcomes for parents and children. However, not all parents have adequate access to this intervention. Evidence-based parenting programs are interventions that help mothers to develop parenting strategies and skills to manage child behaviors in different setting and situations (Prinz, Sanders, Shapiro, Whitaker, & Lutzker, 2009)(Lau, Fung, & Yung, 2010). These parenting toolboxes are full of, knowledge, skills, and credentials that not only empower parents to fulfill their roles, but they also are powerful preventive measures that protect children from maltreatment. Nevertheless, parenting practice differs among cultures.
