Strengthening Families Program

The Strengthening Families Program (SFP) is a 11-week evidence-based family skills training program. The parents and children (ages 7-17) attend once a week to learn how to improve their parenting skills and develop youth life skills. Parents and children learn separately the first hour of each weekly meeting. Then, parents and children come together for a joint family practice session. Children’s Trust of South Carolina funds SFP in numerous sites across the state.

Parent Café/Dad Café

Parent Café is a program where parents/caregivers talk about and explore the challenges and victories of raising a family by exploring the protective factors that keep families strong: resilience, relationships, knowledge, support & communication. Cafés are structured conversations that rely on participants’ knowledge and strength to guide the discussion.

Dad Cafés are similar in structure but focus on topics related to fatherhood and are designed for male participants. As trained facilitators, we help guide conversations and offer the opportunity for parents & guardians to explore their own wisdom and learn from each other while building community.
