Empowered Parenting Program

Empowered Parenting (EPP) provides one-to-one training for adults with developmental disabilities. At the core of this program is the concept of empowerment. Empowerment is the act of increasing an individual’s capacity to choose and achieve one’s goals independently. The Empowered Parenting Program matches clients with a Facilitator to provide weekly training on skills needed to successfully parent a child in their natural environment in order to sustain the family.
