Parenting and Family Education

Family, in all its diverse forms, is the heart and backbone of a healthy society. Our mission is to improve the well-being of the family through strength-based programs that educate, influence public policy, and help families put evidence-based information to work in their lives. CCEDC provides support for relative caregivers through monthly meetings, parenting workshops focusing on positive discipline for parents and caregivers, adult leadership development through volunteer involvement and youth development activities.
