Operation Parent

Operation Parent equips parents and caregivers with evidence-based information and practical tools to prevent substance use, navigate technology safely, and support children’s mental health. Our handbooks and webinars are designed to spark casual courageous conversations between caregivers and their children that build trust, strengthen protective factors, and reduce risk. Grounded in developmental science and aligned with best practices from NIH, SAMHSA, and the American Academy of Pediatrics, Operation Parent empowers families to foster resilience and well-being.  Community partners rely on our resources to engage parents and create healthier, safer environments for youth and families.
