Our Mission

The mission of Responsible Parents for Education is to act as a resource that provides parents with information and skills that will enhance their awareness of their children’s needs and enable them to respond to the many challenges that face the younger generation today such as substance abuse, eating disorders, teen suicide, low self-esteem, peer pressure and a lack of adequate parental involvement in their life and education. We are committed to empowering parents to encourage, support and embrace their children’s potential in a nurturing and supportive environment that builds a strong foundation for their children to deal with their difficult young adult issues as well as better prepare them for the potential problems that they may encounter in adulthood.
Dolores
We will be starting our workshops in January for parents and teens. Visit our website www.responsibleparentsforeducation.com. We are in the process of adding new information everyday.
