Welcome!

Welcome to Planned Potential for Parents.  We are glad you have joined us here! If you are new to A Positive Approach to Teen Health (P.A.T.H.), you can check us out here at our main website.

Being a teenager these days is not easy... nor is parenthood.  Our staff spends a lot of time in classrooms and other venues educating, encouraging and informing young people every day as they face challenging and what can many times be life changing issues and decisions.  In fact, the mission of P.A.T.H is to equip, empower and encourage teens to make healthy choices through life skills, relationship and character building education.

Though the main purpose of P.A.T.H. is to equip young people with the information and tools they need to make healthy choices, we know that they cannot fully do that without a strong support system at home.  As the saying goes, "it takes a village to raise a child".  As an attempt to be a part of your village, we have created this blog as a place for you to come with your questions and concerns about issues that you and your child may be facing and how you can walk together through them.  We would also love to have your input and encouragement to offer other parents.

Through a collaborative effort from our trained and experienced staff (as many of us are parents ourselves), we will do our best to offer you insight, encouragement, the latest statistics and information about the issues that your kids may be faced with each day.

We hope you will come back to "visit" us as we continue to add weekly posts that we believe will be relevant to the place in life you are at as a parent.
