SFP: Important Points
SFP is three skills courses: Parenting, Children, & Family Skills
SFP skills are for all families
SFP does make learning “Life Skills”easier for high-stress families
“Family” is one or more adults with long-term responsibility for one or
more children; a “parent” has that responsibility
![Page 7: S trengthening Families Program An evidence-based, family skills communication training program that has been found in research to significantly reduce](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081602/551c04e4550346a34f8b4de5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SFP: Goals and Settings SFP is therapeutic, but not Therapy;
personal disclosure is not required
Strong families reduce risk for many adverse behaviors in children & teens
SFP makes family life less stressful and more rewarding for parents under stress. SFP is delivered by schools,
courts, and community agencies for voluntary, referred, required and mandated families
