Family Counseling, Parenting & Custody/Access Materials

~ These programs are complete and are suitable for use in social services settings and for provision of court mandated group training of families whose parenting practices have been found to represent probable harm to their children. Since some of the same parent materials are used in different programs, it is useful to buy the first program you intend to use as a kit, and then to purchase sufficient separate materials to offer subsequent programs.
The author's contention is that most families that have interactional difficulties exhibit one or more of the following 4 problems.
- innapropriate developmental expectations of children
- lack of empathic awareness of the needs of children
- strong belief in the use of corporal punishment
- reversing parent-child family roles
By extension, problems in one of these 4 domains precludes the child/adolescent from the nurturing which they require from their family system.
The Available nurturing programs are each listed separately in this catalog. These include:
- ABC's: Parenting Program for Parents and Children
- Prenatal Families
- Parents & Children Birth-5 years
- Parents & Children 4-12 years
- Parents & Adolescents
- Teenage Parents and Their Families
- Foster and Adoptive Parents and Their Children
- Parents With Special Needs and Their Children
- Families in Substance Abuse Recovery
- African-American Families
- Children's Sports & Coaching
The two programs for families of children aged Birth-5 and 4-12 years are also available in Spanish.
Facilitator training to assist in qualifying individuals to set up Nurturing programs and to train other facilitators is available at scheduled times or by arrangment. A 6-hour VHS video for facilitator self-training is available for use in training, or for developing familiarity with the program before presenting a training program for facilitators.
The research and validation report will be useful in writing grant proposals, in seeking funding for program support, or in defending the effectiveness of family based parenting programs for treating and preventing child abuse and neglect.
The Multicultural Guide describes 14 cultures in terms of parenting, typical roles, personal responsibility, religion, patriotism, significance of violence, typical punishments, most important values, taboos, and words and phrases to facilitate communication. The cultures described are Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Cambodian, Hmong, Vietnamese, Laotian, Puerto Rican, Mexican, Chilean, Filipino, El Salvadoran, Hawaiian, African-American.

NURTURING FAMILY: ABC (ASSURING BETTER CHILDREN)

Bavolek, Stephen

~ a family program for children who are entering kindergarten and their parents. Parents & Children meet once per week for six consecutive weeks in separate groups. Parents learn ways to enhance a child's self-esteem and self-concept, while children engage in age-appropriate games and activities.

Families learn to: Establish discipline through family rules, rewards, and alternative punishments to spanking; praise themselves & their children; express their anger in healthy non-destructive ways; use personal power to make healthy choices; promote school success through relationships with teachers; problem solve and negotiate; recognize warning signs of drug use & create a drug free home.

Checkpoint parenting pinpoints key times in education (such as kindergarten entry) when parents can smooth the way for their children; teaches support of children through communication with teachers and school personnel; promotes family enrichment as a key to school success; creates a community norm of family participation in schooling.

The parent handbook for this program is available in Spanish. Thus the whole program can be given in Spanish by an instructor who is bilingual and can use the English Implementation Guide.

NURTURING FAMILY: AFRICAN AMERICANS

Bass, L. & D. Moody

~ a 32 hour family nurturing education program oriented toward families with children aged 12 and older.

NURTURING FAMILY: CHILD ABUSE / ALCOHOL & DRUG ABUSE

NURTURING FAMILY: PARENTS & CHILDREN

Bavolek, Stephen

~ The Parents and Children From Birth - 5 years program comes in two formats -- home based or group. The home based program is comprised of 45 sessions intended to be conducted weekly for 1.5 hours per session in a family home. Parents meet with a home visitor for 1 hour to learn a new concept regarding self or parenting and spend 30 minutes afterward interacting with their child(ren) and the facilitator, learning family skills and discussing new ideas.

The birth-5 group program consists of 23 2.5 hour parents and children's group sessions. The parents group is run by two facilitators, while the children's group meets concurrently and is run by two facilitators plus two volunteer helpers. For half an hour out of each session the two groups come together to engage in family nurturing time (which includes games, songs, infant/child massage, and snack).

The 4-12 year program is designed to be offered in 15 group sessions of 2.5 hours each. The parents and children's groups meet separately and come together for 20 minutes out of each session. One group facilitator is required approximately for every 7 children in the children's group, and two group facilitators will be required for the parents group.

The Kits contain all the required materials to offer the programs.

PARENTING STRESS INDEX (PSI)

Abidin, Richard R.

~ (1995) is a multidimensional measure of stress related to parenting. Scores are helpful in assessing the probability of dysfunctional parenting, the potential for parental behavior problems, and resulting child adjustment difficulties. The Long Form consists of 120 items in a 5-point (strongly agree-strongly disagree) format. Scales include: depression, acceptability, attachment, mood, distractibility, reinforcement of parent, adaptability, isolation, demandingness, role restriction, competence, spouse and health. The Short Form contains 36-items and yields a total stress score derived from 3 scales: parental distress, parent-child dysfunctional interaction, and difficult child.
The computer scoring program is recommended as it provides an extensive interpretive report including profile of scores, validity assessment, clincial interpretations, and rec?quiet
ommendations. The software allows unlimited scorings if the test is administered in pap-er-pencil format. On-screen computer-administration is sold on a case-limited basis, and requires a key disk.
