The Center For Jewish Education
Is partnering with Mariposa Education.
TO BRING SUPPORT FOR PARENTS & CAREGIVERS
Mariposa Education and the Center for Jewish Education are partnering to offer a supportive online community for Jewish parents and caregivers that will run from March to July 2022.
Watch this short video for a personal invitation from Mariposa instructors, Jenny Barrett and Dr. Anne Townsend.
WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THE COMMUNITY EXPERIENCE?
We've heard you. Parents need something flexible - a place to share concerns and questions, get support in dealing with their own stress and make sense of all the parenting “how to” advice floating around.
This private community is fully funded by the Charles Crane Family Foundation through CJE.
There is no cost to parents and caregivers.
OPEN FOR FOUR MONTHS:
Private, safe space. No ads. No Facebook. We use a simple app called Mighty Networks.
Weekly mini-lesson videos on topics such as identifying signs of stress in your child, addressing power struggles, developing self control in children.
Tips and tools you can draw on anytime and use right away to address concerns and build connection.
Community workshops - attend live or watch the recordings.
The ability to interact live with Mariposa facilitators, Jenny Barrett and Dr. Anne Townsend.

TRY OUR MINI-COURSE
This series of short videos delivered to your Inbox, is designed to help you understand how stress affects children, ways this shows up in their behaviors, and one simple strategy to start using right away to reduce those power struggles and increase cooperation.
It’s not a surprise that stress-driven behaviors are rising for everyone, and affecting younger and younger children. The approaches most of us were taught to handle challenging behaviors are often inadequate. Sometimes they work, for a bit, but over time, they tend to make things worse.
