Piermont Parents: Hone Your Skills With this 6-Week Class

The Mental Health Association of Rockland County will begin a 6-week Patient Parenting class March 12 to help people enhance their parenting skills and techniques.

The course will be held from 6-8 p.m. Thursday evenings at the MHA. 140 Route 303, Valley Cottage, NY 10989. Class dates are March 12, 19, 26 and April 9, 16, 23.

Its organizers promise it is a practical, skill-based parenting program that can be applied to every family.

Continuing to learn new skills and strategies is a fundamental part of good parenting. The skills and techniques taught in Patient Parenting classes have helped parents from diverse backgrounds create healthy family relationships that foster safety and well-being at home, in school and in the community.

The course is taught by a licensed child/adolescent psychologist with over 30 years experience in the field, and over 15 years in conducting parent training programs to enhance parenting skills.
