How does NOBODY'S PERFECT work?
NOBODY'S PERFECT is actually offered as a series of six to eight weekly group sessions. The program is built around five colourful, easy-to-read books which are given to the parents free of charge. During the meetings, trained facilitators support participants as they work together to discover positive ways of parenting.
The NOBODY'S PERFECT Program is based on the principles of adult education – it builds on what parents already know and do for themselves and their children. It starts with the parents' personal experiences and interests and actively involves participants in the learning process. It builds networks among parents and encourages them to see one another as sources of advice and support.
