Family Education supports Mrs. Harris to complete her parenting class

Family Education supports Mrs. Harris to complete her parenting class

Mrs. Harris is a single mother of five young children; she works hard to support her family. She was recently required to attend a parenting class as a result of a case with DSS. Mrs. Harris signed up for our Nurturing Parenting Program, but after enrolling, her vehicle was stolen from outside her apartment complex. Her financial situation precluded her from replacing the vehicle. She was overwhelmed and struggling to get to work and other errands. Attending class became less of a priority with this additional stress and lack of transportation.

 

Our Family Education team kept in contact with Mrs. Harris, reminding her of the importance of attending the class to improve her relationship with her children and ultimately to close her DSS case. The class facilitator offered her the option to attend a virtual class via Zoom to overcome her transportation difficulties. Mrs. Harris gladly attended the virtual program, fully engaging in the class, participating, and submitting all homework given to successfully complete the course.

 

‘I’ve learned new ways to interact and communicate with my children and felt fully supported by Thompson’s staff.’ ~ Mrs. Harris
