Information about Family TIES
Family TIES is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping families provide a safe, nurturing and positive environment for their children and teenagers by providing them with free parenting classes specific to their child's age. Our programs seek to educate prenatal parents and parents with children up to age 18. We serve families who are mandated by DFACS or the court system, as well as, parents who are incarcerated or any parent wishing to improve their parenting skills.
We also offer programs for teenagers whose parents are enrolled in our Empower Parents class, and for middle school students in the YMCA afterschool program. These classes are aimed at helping teens deal with issues of bullying, drugs, self esteem, anger management, and character building.
