The Center's programs for single parents are based on a popular, modular seminar entitled "Raising Great Kids On Your Own."
Presented consecutively, this three-part seminar can be condensed into three one-hour sessions, or expanded up to eight hours in total program length. Most sponsors prefer a three-hour format, with breaks between each of the three, 60-minute sections.
Released in Spring, 2007 is a book highlighting much of the seminar content, and drawing upon the same title.
Entitled "Raising Great Kids On Your Own: A Guide and Companion For Every Single Parent" the 250-page resource is presented by Harvest House Publishers of Eugene, Oregon.
This is the third book in the Center's series for families in transition. Joining "Happily Remarried" and "Moving Forward After Divorce" the book forms a trilogy of helpful guidance for post-divorce singles, remarried couples, and blended families.
The new book -- filled with best parenting advice on the market today -- draws ideas from Biblical sources, current psychology, plus the life experiences of busy and effective single parents. These working adults face the challenges of more effective discipline and clearer communication every day. Their advice goes beyond theory to talk about practical, everyday reality.
The result: positive parenting techniques that transform single adults and their families!
