Positive Parenting Program (PPP)

Happier families, better relationships.

Programmatic update regarding the Positive Parenting Program

The County of San Diego Behavioral Health Services Department notified JFS that in response to Behavioral Health Transformation (Proposition 1, Behavioral Health Services Act, and Behavioral Health Bond Act), the County has comprehensively assessed prevention services and are adjusting contracted programs to better align the entire system of care and what is classified as prevention services.

Unfortunately, due to the policy changes, the County of San Diego has opted to not extend the Positive Parenting Program at the end of the contract term, June 30, 2026. If you would like to learn more about the BHSA changes you may visit the website they have provided to view more information regarding the programs that have been impacted.

Let’s take the guesswork out of parenting.

The Positive Parenting Program (PPP) helps parents in San Diego County find positive solutions to common childhood behavior issues using strategies proven by more than 35 years of research. The curriculum is based on Triple P, an evidenced-based program that has been shown to promote family harmony, reduce parent-child conflict, foster successful peer relationships, and prepare children for successful experiences at school.
