Empowering the Parent Team
NJ Parents Caucus (NJPC) offers a FREE 5-week Professional Parent Advocacy Training program for parents, grandparents, foster parents, adoptive parents, and other caregivers raising children with emotional and behavioral challenges.
Those who attend the training are given the opportunity to strengthen their knowledge of the systems that service their families, their rights and responsibilities within those systems, and the advocacy and professional collaborative skills needed to successfully negotiate those systems. Parents will become better able to advocate for themselves and their communities ,resulting in increased access to appropriate care and treatment for all children.
The Professional Parent Advocacy Training is approved for foster, adoptive, and kinship training through NJDCF.
