ChildFund-s Integrative Parenting Program in under-resourced communities aims to empower parents and primary caregivers with knowledge and practical skills to support their infant, children, and young adolescents to build a strong foundation in life. Its goal is to establish good relationships between parents and their children. This program delivers the eight quality standards of ChildFund-s parenting program for parents with children from 0 to 14 years old. The approach is two-fold: Responsive Parenting for 0 to 5-year old-s and Positive Parenting for parents of children above five years old. Child protection and disaster risk reduction are key in both approaches. ChildFund reached 2,550 caregivers through 229 community facilitators in 8 districts. Our best practice study shows an improved relationship between parents and children and a decrease in harmful practices at home. Early stimulation at home is taking place with children under five. Children reported that they feel comfortable sharing what is on their mind and take action without being judged or punished by their parent.
