Our mission is to fundamentally transform family and community wellbeing by centering on strengths-based, trauma-informed approaches that help families and communities thrive. We do this by developing and teaching life-changing strategies, fostering a collaborative network of individuals and institutions that implement PJ programs, and who advocate for better opportunities for families and communities. We envision a world where every family has the opportunity to thrive, a future where proven practices inform policies that unleash the unique potential within each family, fostering resilient communities.
At Parenting Journey, we don’t just say that our parent-development programs are successful, we back it up with proven results. All programs are modeled on our NEST philosophy, meaning:
Non-didactic: programs are not aimed at teaching how to parent, they help to identify the strengths needed to parent
Evidence-based: our core program has proven to help parents transition from negative to positive feelings about themselves and life in general
Strengths-focused: programs hone in on what parents are already good at and amplify it, rather than focusing on weaknesses
Trauma-informed: programs are designed to acknowledge the impact of past experiences and create a safe space for growth
