PARENT WORKSHOPS

As an extension of the work we do with rural children, we offer training and workshops to the parents of these children with the aim of having greater impact on the entire household of each child. These workshops skill parents and caregivers in methods to stimulate their children educationally in the home, using practical and fun ways of learning. We teach parents how to read with their children, how to use every day activities as learning opportunities and how to nuture and cultivate a home that is a positive and uplifting space for children.

Other specific areas of focus in these workshops include discussions relating to discipline in the home, alcohol matters, sexual abuse, pregnancies and similar social issues.
