OUR MISSION

To strengthen families and promote healthy parent-child relationships…even in those real-life moments. 

OUR VISION

Real Life Families envisions a community where every parent, regardless of background or income, has stigma-free, easily accessible, and no-cost parenting support, mentorship opportunities, and effective and culturally adaptable parenting tools creating stronger family teams and children who are thriving with healthy social, emotional, cognitive, and character skills.

OUR SERVICES

We offer free classes and workshops, parenting support groups, one-on-one and group coaching sessions, and mentoring (parents-helping-parents). 

There is no relationship more important to the healthy development of a child than the parent-child relationship.

OUR REAL-LIFE FOCUS

We understand that parenting is HARD…families are struggling…many families are facing some very tough, real-life circumstances.  We understand that kids are frustrating, exhausting, draining, and sometimes overwhelming.  We understand that marriage is really difficult.  And sibling rivalry, sassy attitudes, disobedience, and defiance is so very challenging…but our kids need us!

That’s why we are here to help!  We take your real-life, tough moments and equip, empower, and encourage YOU to find REAL solutions that will work for your REAL-LIFE family.  We want to do all we can to walk alongside you and provide you with practical evidence-based tools to strengthen your family, improve your marriage, and promote a healthy relationship with your child.

OUR WORK

The work we do is immeasurable!

When EVERY parent is equipped with tools to meet their child’s developmental needs and learns how to build a secure attachment at every stage of development…

• Child abuse and neglect, mental illness, aggression, teen pregnancy, teen suicide, and even crime decrease…  
• Self-esteem and academic achievement improve…
• Schools, neighborhoods and communities are safer…
• Children have healthier outcomes in their social, emotional, cognitive, and moral development…
