Changes Parent Support Network is a structured, peer-led program that provides support to parents struggling with children who are engaging in oppositional and self-destructive behaviors. Changes offers hope, help, support and relief from feeling overwhelmed and alone.

Training for support and crisis intervention/de-escalation:

"Am I even helping? I don't know what to do! How are we going to get through this night?" Think of Mental Health First Aid as a "CPR-type course for Mental Illness" crisis moments. We highly recommend this course for parents, peers and any others that may find themselves in a position of assisting someone in crisis.
