This special Leader Training Workshop will prepare participants to lead both the Active Parenting Now and Active Parenting of Teens video-based parenting education programs. The training will be conducted by the programs’ author, Dr. Michael Popkin with additional sessions offered by two experienced Active Parenting leaders, Bruce and Carolyn Gillette, co-authors of Active Parenting in the Faith Community, about the use of these programs in church settings.

The workshop will feature a combination of lecture, brief video vignettes, experiential activities and group discussion. Participants will receive 14 hours of continuing education credit from NBCC (National Board of Certified Counselors) and, upon completion of their first course with parents, be qualified for certification from Active Parenting in both programs.
