Welcome to Families First Parenting Program

Families First strengthens families of all backgrounds and life circumstances. We help parents build positive, rewarding and satisfying relationships with their children so that they will develop into healthy, productive and caring members of their communities.

We recognize that parents raising children in extremely challenging circumstances are particularly at risk for allowing the common frustrations of parenting to escalate into crisis.

Created by the Kentucky Education Reform Act (KERA); Family Resource Centers were developed by individual schools or groups of schools with at least 20% eligibility for free / reduced lunch. Once established, a center is open to all students and their families within the school community, regardless of family income. Centers have local advisory councils made up of school personnel, parents, and community representatives.
