Program Spotlight: PASS
Most parenting is learned through experience. How parents were treated when
they were young is often how they treat their children – that’s not always a
good thing.
The Parents Acquiring Skills and Strength (PASS) program is now entering
its second decade and has helped hundreds of parents. The goal of the
program is to prevent child abuse and neglect — educating parents to
break the cycle can prevent many such incidents.
The program uses the Nurturing Parenting Program curriculum to offer
parent education, self-help, and support groups for all families in our
community. Class members may include those who may be looking
for new parenting skills to deal with the tough job of raising children
in a healthy environment; those who are parenting while coping with
stresses such as single parenting, leaving domestic violence, divorce,
parenting sober for the first time; those who are raising grandchildren
or may be at-risk and have some involvement with the Department for
Community Based Services (also known as Child Protective Services).
