Positive Parenting Program (Triple P)

Parent Café is an innovative process for parents to have their own conversations about keeping their families strong based on a set of protective factors parents built that help prevent child abuse and neglect. Check here for upcoming Parent Café events.

Family Place

A Family Place Library is a center for early childhood information, parent education, emergent literacy, socialization and family support. Expanding the traditional role of children's services, Family Place builds on the knowledge that good health, early learning, parental involvement and supportive communities play a critical role in young children's growth and development. For more information, visit the Family Place Libraries.
