ACT Raising Safe Kids Program

Launched by the American Psychological Association (APA) in 2001, and revised several times since, the ACT Raising Safe Kids Program relies on research evidence to provide training about positive, effective parenting. Coordinated by the APA's Violence Prevention Office, ACT aims to "strengthen family and improve parenting skills and practices to create safe and healthy environments" for kids. The program is explained in depth on the homepage, and the ACT for Parents/Caregivers section offers fact sheets and handouts in English as well as Spanish. Professionals can navigate to Training and Certification, as well as Resources, to find out what they can learn from this excellent program. Also of interest are the Evaluation Studies that provide information on the research that has been conducted on the program's effectiveness.
