The Exchange Club Family Skills Center offers Positive Parenting Groups which are open to all parents wanting to learn more about parenting their children in a positive way in order to build healthy relationships with their children.

Each parenting class meets weekly throughout the year and offers a combination of education and support. Class leaders provide information that is useful in helping parents work toward improving parenting skills. There is no attendance policy and parents may attend as often as needed.

Classes are offered to parents with newborn children to children age 17. There is no charge for these classes and childcare is provided during the meeting time.

The locations listed are meeting sites only. If you have questions about these classes or if you need directions to any class, please call the Exchange Club Family Skills Center.
