The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA), as reauthorized in 2010, identifies Parent Education as a core prevention service. Many of the Children s Bureau s Community-Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) grants fund Parent Education programming as part of local community prevention efforts.
The focus is on encouraging positive behavior through building the parent-child connection. Parents learn how to understand and respond to a child’s cues so they can be more attentive to his or her needs. The resulting improvements in child behavior can in turn reinforce positive parental attitudes and lead to more successful parenting.
