Mending Hearts is excited to announce that we have openings in our Family & Parent Coaching Program based on Parent-Child Care (PC-Care), a parenting protocol created at UC Davis Children's Hospital for families with children ages 1-12.
Families who have children formerly placed in foster care, currently live with a relative or guardian, or who live in a low income and rural area can apply to receive these coaching services for FREE from one of the doctors, therapists, or para-professional trainees in our International PC-Care Training and Certification Program.
Families and coaches together review and choose from more than 20 different parenting strategies to help children process emotions and manage behaviors. As a team they co-create a parenting plan based on the strengths, culture, and values of the family. Next openings are available for Fall 2025.
Become a Certified Parenting Coach
Those who work with families, such as doctors, therapists, teachers and behavioral specialists, as well as those who have received PC-Care with us are eligible to join our training program and become certified in the Parent-Child Care Parenting Protocol (PC-Care).
Certificates from UC Davis Children's Hospital are available upon completion of training with Mending Hearts. Scholarships and discounts are available.
