Support for Parents
Welcome to Parents’ Corner
PIRI’s vision is to expand its suite of evaluated programs, providing support for parents at every step of a comprehensive stepped-care mental health model. All new parents experience times when being a parent is challenging. Some parents find that information or tips are enough to help them through those times; others feel they need more support to manage, and want to use a web program or app that helps them learn skills and develop plans. Sometimes a supporter or therapist is needed in addition to online resources.
