Positive Parenting groups offer parents an opportunity to learn strategies that work while parenting their child in a positive manner that builds self-esteem.  Groups are offered in Strathroy at the Search Community Mental Health Centre every spring and fall.

RAPP-TAPP-C

The focus of this project is to develop, provide, and evaluate services for children under the age of 12 coming to the attention of police and fire service authorities.  The aim of this RAPP-TAPP-C (Referral to Alternative Pathways, The Arson Prevention Program for Children) project is to engage children and their parents in treatment services and education with the goal of de-escalating the problematic behaviour and developing healthier coping skills to manage stressful situations and emotions.  This is a three year program funded by the Federal National Crime Prevention Centre, Public Safety Canada Department.
