POSITIVE PARENTING

Positive Parenting: Building Stronger Families in San Diego County


At The Children’s Initiative, we believe every child deserves to grow up in a home filled with safety, connection, and love. In response to rising concerns around child abuse and neglect, we are doubling down on our commitment to Positive Parenting—a proven, nurturing approach that strengthens families and fosters healthy development.

​

Through free community workshops, resource hubs, and one-on-one support, we are equipping parents and caregivers with practical tools to build trust, set loving boundaries, and navigate challenges with confidence. Our mission is to partner with families—meeting them where they are, and walking alongside them every step of the way.

​

Together, we’re creating a future where every child in San Diego thrives—starting at home.
