Professional Parent Advocacy & Certification September 16, 2023
New Jersey Parents’ Caucus (NJPC) is offering a FREE Professional Advocacy Training program for parents, grandparent, and other caregivers raising children with emotional and behavioral challenges who are involved in the mental health, juvenile justice and/or child welfare system. Parents and caregivers attending the training are given the opportunity to strengthen their knowledge of the systems, and the advocacy, professional, and collaborative skills needed to successfully negotiate those systems. Parents and family members will become better able to advocate for themselves and their communities, resulting in increased access to appropriate care and treatment for all children. The Professional Parent Advocacy training is approved for foster, adoptive and kinship training credit through NJDCF.
Lunch will be served or gift cards will be provided. Early registration is recommended. The training classes will be offered Virtually OR at Mr. G’s Kids community learning center in Paterson.
