Co-Parenting
 Class
(The Ma & Pa Program)

The MArriage & PArenting Program is a 10 week class that focuses on Strengthening the Couple Relationship through an Exploration of Parenting Attitudes and Skills. The 10 week classes are continuous throughout the year.

The MArriage & PArenting Curriculum consists of: The MArriage & PArenting Journal Workbook by Mark Perlman, MA.

    The MArriage & PArenting Program (affectionately known as “MA and PA”) is a group experience in which couples can strengthen their relationship through a shared exploration of parenting attitudes, skills and practices. It is structured to provide mothers and father’s with experiences that allow the self new cognitive (thinking) and affective (feeling) responses, thus providing the opportunity to change parenting attitudes and behaviors. As a result, program participants can choose to reshape and relearn behaviors, to let go of old practices that do not bring desired results, and to adopt new ones that achieve the established goals. The growth in self-concept and self-esteem can lead to more nurturing, rewarding relationships with children, spouses/co-parents, and other family members. Therefore, The MArriage & PArenting Program is created on an experiential learning model, which provides activities that stimulate thinking and feeling in a support group atmosphere.

    A long-term stable, committed relationship between two loving parents, ideally within the sanctity of a marriage contract, is the most desirable context for raising children. However this, program thoroughly supports unmarried couples participating, learning and growth in the role of parenting.
