Triple P - Positive Parenting Program in South Carolina

Triple P in South Carolina

Children’s Trust is working to activate the Positive Parenting Program, known as Triple P, across South Carolina with support from The Duke Endowment and the BlueCross® BlueShield® of South Carolina Foundation.

This work is building a model prevention system that can be replicated across South Carolina to change the state’s approach to the prevention of child maltreatment. It includes making Triple P Online available throughout the state.

This innovative work funds local organizations to implement Triple P in their communities.

How It Works

With more than 35 years of ongoing research, Triple P is an effective, evidence-based parenting program. It offers simple, practical strategies to help parents build strong, healthy relationships, confidently manage their children’s behavior and promote positive child development. Triple P has been shown to work across cultures, socio-economic groups and in many kinds of family structures.

Managed through a local coordinating agency, services are provided to families by a variety of community-based service organizations including pediatric practices, nonprofits, libraries, schools and churches.
