Family Development Resources, Inc. is dedicated to creating parenting programs that meet the needs of Spanish-speaking families. Programs, videos, instructional aids and assessment tools have been developed and normed for Hispanic families

Crianza con Cariño (The Nurturing Programs for Parents and Their Children Birth to Five Years) was validated with Spanish-speaking families in Colorado, Wisconsin, Arizona, Texas, Mexico, and Venezuela. Agencies serving Hispanic families of Puerto Rican, Mexican, Central and South American descent participated in the field-testing.

Program concepts and language have been carefully reviewed and edited by Hispanic professionals in human services to ensure that the nurturing parenting concepts are culturally sensitive, appropriate and accurately presented.

Parenting Videos

Produced in Spanish (not dubbed), these videos show families from a variety of national groups including Mexican-Americans, Puerto Ricans, and Central and South Americans. The videos are divided into scenes that show real life parenting challenges. At the end of each scene, the viewer is invited to pause the video, consider what occurred, and brainstorm solutions. When the video resumes, the viewer sees a demonstration of parenting techniques useful for each situation. These nurturing strategies emphasize prevention: understanding the child’s needs and developmental stage, keeping conflicts from escalating, and fostering cooperation.

These videos can be used…

  • in workshops and support groups for parents;
  • as part of a complete Crianza program;
  • in training programs for professionals.
