Balancing Work and Family: A Pilot Evaluation of an Evidence-Based Parenting Education Program
FAMILIES IN SOCIETY-THE JOURNAL OF CONTEMPORARY SOCIAL SERVICES(2015)
Abstract
In balancing family and work demands, there is an ever-increasing need for programming for working parents that increases their effectiveness in both domains. More evidence is needed in order to substantiate the delivery of such programs in the workplace. This study measured the effectiveness of an evidence-based parenting intervention, with pre-and postassessments of parenting experience, workplace outcomes, and child behavior. In all, 49 participants completed a 5-week pilot study of the adapted Level 3 Triple P - Positive Parenting Program. Participants reported increased positive parenting experiences and improved work engagement. Results provide evidence to support the delivery of short-term parenting interventions in the workplace, as well as evidence that these interventions can produce positive outcomes both at home and work.
