Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
The Board routinely adopts Proclamations recognizing special events and meritorious achievements; the last Positive Parenting Awareness Month Proclamation was sponsored by Supervisor Hamburg on January 23, 2018.
Summary of Request:
Families in Mendocino County can receive support from various positive parenting programs, such as the Positive Parenting Program (Triple P), an evidence-based program that has been offered for more than eleven years in English and Spanish by many organizations and individuals throughout the county, thanks to a partnership between FIRST 5 Mendocino, the Mendocino County Health and Human Services Agency, the Family Resource Centers, and North Coast Opportunities Early Head Start and Head Start programs. Triple P is an effective and universal public health parenting intervention benefiting approximately 1000 parents and children of diverse backgrounds in Mendocino County each year. Triple P offers parents and caregivers a “tool kit” of proven strategies for strengthening relationships with their children, promoting children’s development, and preventing or managing common parenting challenges.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not adopt Proclamation.
