Supporting parenting to promote children's social and emotional well-being [electronic resource] - 2016 - 1 online resource

The effects of parenting on the healthy development of children and adolescents, and on preventing behavioural, emotional, and social problems, are pervasive. A public health approach to parent education and support can have major impact on the mental health of Canadians. Many of the values and strategic directions advocated by the Mental Health Commission of Canada can be realized in a population-based system for parent support such as the Triple P Positive Parenting Program. Triple P's core principles, program components, and means of implementation are described, with illustrations from across Canada.
