Inspire, Inc. is dedicated to providing parents and families with the tools they need to raise happy and healthy children. To do this, Inspire Counseling Center now offers Active Parenting Now© classes at our counseling center in Kissimmee, Florida.
What is Active Parenting Now©?
Active Parenting Now© is a six-week long series of classes designed to serve parents of young children, ages 5-12. These classes are offered in a closed group setting where participants will view videos of diverse families and receive information and training on effective parenting skills. The program is designed in such a way that even parents who have low reading skills are able to benefit and complete the program successfully.
