The Family Resource Center for Northeast Louisiana serves families and parents at no cost in the following parishes: Bienville, Caldwell, East Carroll, Franklin, Jackson, Lincoln, Madison, Morehouse, Ouachita, Richland, Tensas, Union, and West Carroll. Although our primary purpose is to provide parent education, visit coaching and a safe environment for families and children receiving services through DCFS’ Child Protective Services, our ultimate goal is to provide comprehensive parenting education, resources and information.

GROUP TRIPLE P

Parents or caregivers interested in promoting their child’s development and potential or they may have concerns about their child’s behavioral problems or simply wish to prevent behavior problems from developing. Parents actively participate in a range of exercises to learn about the causes of child behavior problems, setting specific goals, and using strategies to promote child development, manage misbehavior, and plan for high-risk situations.

STANDARD TEEN TRIPLE P
​(1:1 INTERVENTION)

​Parents or caregivers who have concerns about their teenager’s development and behavior can take part in support intervention on a one-to-one basis. After thorough family assessment, parents set their own goals, learn ways to encourage positive behavior for teens, and teach their teens new skills such as problem solving, conflict resolution, and self-regulation.  Parents also learn ways to use appropriate consequences for problem behavior (e.g. breaking family rules, taking inappropriate risks, emotional outbursts).
