The Parenting Education Program is a short term, crisis intervention and stabilization program that serves families referred by Luzerne County Children and Youth in which at least one child is at risk of abuse (physical, emotional, sexual, or psychological), neglect, parent-child conflict, or family instability. The goal of the program is to preserve the family while ensuring the safety of the children and helping the family learn new skills to stay together successfully. The Parenting Instructor utilizes a flexible work schedule that enables them to be accessible to their families when the family is available or when the family is experiencing difficulty. The Instructor will utilize an agency approved evidence based parenting program and will utilize the NCFAS in the development of the case service plan.
