Parents are always looking for ways to strengthen family bonds, learning, activity and more. Now there is a resource that makes it easier than ever!

Collaborative Parenting of Richmond (CPR) provides a range of services to parents and families in the Richmond and surrounding areas.  “Collaborative Parenting” refers to the collaboration and team effort of Parenting Educators and parents as an alternative to child psychotherapy (when appropriate).

Here’s how it works:

1. Providing Parent classes and workshops designed to broaden the parent’s understanding of their child at each stage of development
2. Strengthen specific skills in the parent
3. Provide a deeper understanding of the child’s behavior

CPR  focuses on making parents the powerful people and problem-solvers in their children’s lives.  With the proper guidance and skill development parents learn to:

• resolve their child’s individual behavior problems
• reduce conflict in the family and classroom
• love being a parent once again

Individual Sessions:  One hour individual sessions are offered  with content being based on the needs of the parents attending.  They also offer CO-Parent education and guidence designed to meet the needs of families during and after a separation and divorce.

Classes and Workshops:  Look on the website for a wide range of topics that classes and Saturday workshops. Anything from postpartum struggles to toilet training to drugs, sex and video games. And if you can’t find what you’re looking for, call them and tell them what you want. Many of the classes are free.

Speaking Engagements:   Also listed on the website are a few of the popular topics groups of all kinds have asked for. Whether you are a church group, a MOM’s group, a group of friends, a school, or an organization of most any genre. CPR can provide a fascinating speaking event  for your group – baby showers included!
