FRIENDS Parent Training

FRIENDS Parent Training Workshops provide parents with the opportunity to become informed about the FRIENDS tools and life skills that their children are learning in the classroom. They also learn how best to support their children in using these skills. Each year parent training workshops are delivered to 15 communities throughout the province. The 2009-10 communities will be posted on this site in September 2009.
