Barry University's Family Wellness/Seeds of Hope Program serves as an ecosystem of support for children and families in our community. Families, parents/caregivers, and children are afforded high-quality programs to equip them with vital tools and skills to increase their protective factors and strengthen the family environment, which in turn will support children's development and parent/caregiver well-being.

This is accomplished through the delivery of two family-parenting interventions tailored to support the child and parent: Strengthening Families 7-17 years program (SFP) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).

Barry University's supportive parenting and family strengthening programs will support children's prosocial development across their lifespan, empower parents, strengthen the family, and prepare children for a lifetime of success.
