The needed help is with those who are open to learning how to parent and stop generational trauma. That is first and foremost the most needed. Then working in the community to move the needle on equity with children.

As a researcher, I know the importance of positive parenting for ensuring healthy child outcomes; but as a parent, I also know how hard it is to consistently use these approaches. Mothers of Joy teaches evidence-based parenting techniques delivered by real mothers who know how challenging parenting is. The curriculum covers a variety of topics, including foundational positive parenting approaches and more specialized techniques designed to meet the needs of children who have been exposed to trauma. By providing programming that is both empathetic and empowering, Mothers of Joy fills an important need in the Flint community.

A child needs focused time with eye contact and a shared activity with their parents. Through the support groups and classes with others at Mothers of Joy Institute, we have learned the importance of intentional parenting to connect with our son with special needs and reduce behavior problems.
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will not forget how you made them feel.

Intentional parenting is an approach where you use strategies to build a healthy parent-child relationship. It is an approach to developing safe, stable, and nurturing parent-child relationships. The intentional parenting approach relies on brain science to provide you with ways to stay present and involved with your child. Positive parenting means taking an approach that is sensitive to children’s individual needs and addressing the typical challenges that arise in early childhood with empathy and respect.
