Confident Parents: Thriving Kids helps parents and caregivers develop skills and strategies to support their child aged 3-12 to manage anxiety or behaviour challenges, through a series of online videos (for anxiety) or workbooks (for behaviour) and activities, supported by coaching sessions by phone. Coaching sessions can be scheduled during day, evening and weekend hours. The programs are offered at no cost to parents and caregivers across BC.

There are three programs available: 

• Confident Parents: Thriving Kids – Anxiety Program is a skill-building program designed to help parents and caregivers support their children aged 3–12 who are experiencing mild to moderate challenges with anxiety. 

• We are Indigenous: Big Worries/Fears, Parent/Caregiver Support Program is a free telephone coaching program supporting First Nations, Metis and Inuit families across BC, whose children aged 3-12 years are struggling with the experience of the Big Worries/Fears, which is also known as anxiety.

• Confident Parents: Thriving Kids – Behaviour Program is a skill-building program designed to help parents support their children aged 3–12 who are experiencing mild to moderate behaviour challenges. 

These programs are available at no cost to Parents/Caregivers across BC, through referral from a physician, nurse practitioner, teacher or school counsellor, Child and Youth Mental Health (CYMH) clinician or Aboriginal Child and Youth Mental Health (ACYMH) clinician.
