Each person has a significant role in the life of a child regardless of gender. It is important that these roles be supported in order to facilitate relationships for children that respect the diversity of each person's contribution. In an effort to address the potential for these contributions, it is paramount that we create a system that provides for inclusion and parental balance whenever practical.

• Parental balance in early childhood: Customized training to meet the needs of the early childhood setting. Items such as environment, dialog, and respect for differences in parenting styles.


• Parental balance for systems: Oriented to help agencies create parentally balanced practice in serving families.


• Father Awareness Trainings: Enlightening work around the ideas that create parental balance.Designed tobuild respect and understanding of the role of fathering in healthy child development.
