The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

*National Federation of the Blind of Pennsylvania*

*Blind Parents Group*

*March 2022 Meeting*

*Facilitator:* Valerie Anderson from Triple P Program

*Date:* Saturday, March 19, 2022

*Time:* 7pm to 8:30pm EST

*Where:* Virtually through Zoom (Information provided below)

This is the last part of our 6-part workshop series on the Powers of Positive Parenting. Come to this last meeting to learn more about self-care and the dimensions of wellness. Whether you provide self-care very well or need some ideas, this meeting is for you! Come and share your ideas! Learn from others and gain a network of supporters within the blind parents group!

You did not have to attend previous meetings in order to attend this one.
You do not need to live in Pennsylvania to attend as parenting does not have state boundaries so we do not think our meetings should either! 😊

We just ask that you come with an open heart and some listening ears!

This is an interactive meeting with a certified trainer in the Triple P (Powers of Positive Parenting) program.

*For more information*, please contact Stacie Leap, Chair of the NFB of PA’s Blind Parents Group at stacie.leap at gmail.com or 215-776-6741.

*About the Speaker:*

Valerie Anderson is a certified facilitator for the Power of Positive Parenting (Triple P Program). She has a Master Degree in Social Work and works part time as a parenting group facilitator at Turning Points for Children’s Project F.A.M. Parenting Program for the past 7 years. Her group facilitation skills include working with a variety of parents (i.e., women in recovery, teen parents, early childhood parents…) in a variety of settings throughout the city of Philadelphia.

*Overview of Triple P Program:*

The Triple P Program is an evidence- based program focused on parenting children from the age 2-12 years old. It provides parents with positive parenting techniques and strategies to teach children the skills to be independent, manage their feelings, solve problems, and communicate to get along with others. It has a cognitive behavior approach to parenting to help children as well as parents make goals for change. Parents will be able to develop their own personalized plans for positive parenting strategies.
