HBCC runs the parent classes in-person. Classes consist of content that is highly interactive allowing for role play and feedback. The curriculum is sequential and builds upon the previous week. If you are not able to attend one of the session dates due to unforeseen circumstances, you may join the week that same class is presented in a subsequent session. 

The journey to a healthier happier adult/child relationship begins with taking HBCC's parenting course!

• Do you feel like you are walking on eggshells disciplining?
• Do you feel like you are being held hostage?
• Do you feel like you can't say no without a blow-up?
• Are motivational rewards & positive parenting not working?
• Does letting your child know there will be consequences to their misbehavior feel like pouring gas on a fire?

Collaborative Problem Solving® (CPS) is a revolutionary, evidence-based approach for helping children develop the skills they need to manage their behavior. This class teaches parents and caregivers how to reduce challenging behaviors by using the CPS approach with their child.  

Taking this class will help you:

• Understand why children sometimes struggle to meet day-to-day expectations.
• Learn the Collaborative Problem Solving approach to addressing conflicts in a way that reduces challenging behaviors, improves relationships, and teaches critical skills.
• Practice addressing problems before things become escalated between you and your child.
• Connect with other parents in a compassionate and non-judgmental setting.
• You will receive a certificate of participation for sessions attended.  
• “Next Steps” are introduced, i.e., Parent Support Groups, School Support through a Collaborative lens, Role Play Workshop, Coaching Group with a Certified LMFT or MSW, and Parent Coaching.
