Dear Parents,

We are pleased to offer a free and confidential website for families, ParentGuidance.org. This site was developed by licensed therapists that provides trusted and specialized courses, professional support, and a safe community for parents, to learn how to support their child. Parents can also get answers to mental health questions, especially anxiety, depression, self-worth, grief and loss, suicide ideation, self-harm, bullying, family strife and other mental health concerns. One popular course you may want to explore is “Parenting with a Purpose.” There are over 50 e-courses, free to families, which are led by licensed therapists as well as an ask-a-therapist section on the website. The courses within ParentGuidance.org will provide you with tools to form stronger bonds with your children.

In addition to the free website, our district is offering Parent Coaching to all families within the district. Parent coaching is a confidential service provided to parents and families. If you or your family is in need of extra support or you would like to fine-tune your parenting, go to ParentGuidance.org, select “Parent Coaching” and select; Register for Coaching; to get started.

A coach can meet with you as often as weekly for a 30-minute session to discuss your concerns or needs. You will also be able to message your coach if other concerns arise before your next scheduled meeting. For more information about the coaching process, click the links below:

Sincerely,
