Online Parenting Classes
The online educational classes are for court-involved parents in the child welfare system, or other parents at risk of their children being placed in foster care or with a relative caregiver. The class will provide the basic parenting skills with the primary goal to minimize the risk of child maltreatment while optimizing child developmental outcomes.
DISCLAIMER: Online parent education classes are widely recognized within the state of Maryland by most courts; however, if you are court ordered to take a co-parenting class, it is always best to verify approval of our classes with your county court of record to verify their acceptance of an online parenting class. Each state, county and individual judge may dictate different requirements.
