You are your child’s first teacher! CLUES parenting educators support you in learning how to strengthen your skills as a parent.
Parenting Education
CLUES parenting educators support you in learning how to strengthen your skills as a parent. Using the Parents as Teachers curriculum, they provide you with tools to address your child’s developmental needs and concrete strategies to support the healthy development of your child’s brain.
CLUES therapists are able to help children and adolescents reduce mental health symptoms and develop improved coping abilities, more positive relationships and better self-regulation. Family therapy is also available as part of a youth’s care plan or as the primary way of working with a youth and their family. Our therapists are trained to help children, adolescents and their families recover from traumatic experiences.
Children’s Mental Health Case Management helps set up and coordinate services for youth ages 5-18 with complex mental health needs. Case managers help parents/caregivers learn about services and resource options, better understand how systems work and advocate for families with other providers and systems. Available for Ramsey and Hennepin County residents.
