NUTURING PARENTING PROGRAM
What Is the Nurturing Parenting Program?
The Nurturing Parenting Program (NPP) is an evidence-based, trauma-informed family development approach designed to build positive, nurturing skills in parents and caregivers.
This program offers a structured, competency-based curriculum grounded in decades of research and practical application. It is widely used across the United States and internationally to prevent and treat child abuse and neglect, strengthen familial bonds, and promote healthy parenting practices.
NPP targets key areas of parenting, including:
Age-appropriate developmental expectations
Empathy, bonding, and attachment
Nonviolent, nurturing discipline methods
Self-awareness, self-worth, and emotional regulation
Empowerment, autonomy, and healthy independence within the parent–child relationship
