NCADD, Sacramento, developed and tested a new Strengthening Christian Families Program (SCFP) for five different faith communities. The program seeks to support families of faith in keeping their kids safe from risk, developing strong family and congregational ties, and learning how to integrate Christian principles in daily decision making. The program begins with a free family dinner, and continues with courses designed for parents, children, and teens. NCADD, Sacramento is now distributing the training workshops and manuals. See video with pastors of different churches talking about their experience with SFP.

See what one mother had to say:
As a single mom, SFP provided me with a strong loving community of families that were seeking help in their parenting just like me. Their sessions helped improve my relationship with my 6 year old. The program gave me weekly reminders on how to better handle every area of parenthood. I felt very encouraged as a single mother when taking the 14 week course. I have taken the program twice because I have practiced their techniques and they have worked. This is one parenting class you and your family want to take!
