SFP: Important Points
SFP is three skills courses: Parenting, Children’s, & Family Skills.
SFP skills are for all families; they are not special skills for deficient families.
SFP does make learning “Life Skills”easier for high-stress families.
SFP: a “family” is one or more adults with
long-term responsibility for one or more children; a “parent” has that responsibility.
