System Impacted Parenting Program

Raindrops to Rainbows is a comprehensive parenting class, presented by JP Training and Consulting Services, that is currently offered in the Bexar County jail and at the Bexar County Re-Entry Center for parents who are justice-involved. This 8 hr class was developed by Ms. Juliana Perez, LCSW, LCDC, from her 30 years of experience working with children all over the state of Texas. Each session is designed to offer maximum knowledge and information on how children's brains change over time, what they should be able to do physically, what trauma does to the brain, and how we can help our children heal and trust again so that proper development remains on track. If you are justice-involved and want to attend this class, please register with the Bexar County Re-Entry Center. Check out their website and services by clicking on the logo.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Raindrops to Rainbows and the Garrison & Friends Project would like to move this class into the community, so that parents become aware of the trauma that can occur before they become justice-involved. Please check back for additional locations as funding allows expansion.
