Children First is a parent education program, utilizing one of four research-based curricula, depending on the parents' needs:
The program is designed to improve parents' skills in interacting with their children, their understanding of their children's development, and their ability to cope with stress, to teach them appropriate (non-corporal) discipline techniques, and to prevent the occurrence or reoccurrence of child abuse. Children First is facilitated by the Education Coordinator to approximately 200 parents each year, since 1998.
