MyTriple P

It is great if both parents can attend but it is not essential. Triple P has also proven very successful when only one of the parents—or a single parent—have participated.

With that said, families with both parents attending will experience many benefits at home working as a team to change their child's behaviour. You'll probably communicate better about parenting, argue and disagree less, and support each other more.

Even if only one parent can attend, Triple P is still of great benefit.

The principles of Triple P apply to anyone who cares for children. Grandparents and other caregivers often attend Triple P programs.

The word "parent" was used throughout this website for the sake of readability. It refers to anyone caring for a child including a biological father or mother, a step-parent, a foster parent, a legal guardian, a grandparent, etc.

Information on the Types of Courses page can help you better understand the difference between each Triple P level. In general, if you are new to My Triple P, you should start with a level-2 program then gradually progress according to your desires and needs.

The scenario description of each course featured in the REGISTER NOW may also help you determine which is best suited to your situation.

If you are unsure, please contact your local My Triple P provider. We will gladly provide insight as to which courses are best suited to your needs and to your family.

Yes. Parents can complete as many of the Triple P choices as they wish. For example, you may go to a one-time seminar and decide you would like to do a more intensive group program as a booster.

What's important is to start at the lowest level and gradually go up. The Triple P level are explained on the page Types of Courses.

No. Providers running Triple P are required to have completed an approved training course and be an accredited provider. Always check the qualifications of the person running any parenting program.

If a parent is already involved with a community partner and has an assigned worker, they should speak to their worker about Triple P and what is recommended for them. The agency might offer the program directly if it's able to do so.

Parents who aren’t currently involved with any of the community partners can contact MyTripleP or register to a Select Seminar or a course featured in the calendar.

Adapted versions of Triple P's level-4 Standard and Standard Group programs are now available to Canada's Indigenous families with children of ages 0 to 12. The programs cover the same material but use different books and videos.

Although these versions of Triple P have been adapted to Indigenous Australian Families, the feedback provided by local families who have participated in it is quite positive.

If you would like more information regarding the Indigenous version of Triple P, please contact us.
