The New York State Parent Education and Awareness Program ("Program") provides information to parents about the impact of parental breakup or conflict on children, how children experience family change, and ways in which parents can help their children manage the family reorganization. The curriculum is child-centered and directed primarily toward promoting children's healthy adjustment and development by educating parents about ways they can minimize the stress of family change and protect their children from the negative effects of ongoing parental conflict. The administration and curriculum of the parent education program is sensitive to domestic violence concerns and must be in compliance with the Guidelines and Procedures for Certification of Parent Education and Awareness Programs.
