We have exciting news to share! ABC Parenting Institute has expanded in-person Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-up (ABC) services across Delaware, making it easier than ever for families to access this evidence-based program.

We now have parent coaches providing in-person and virtual ABC services in all three Delaware counties, and we're accepting referrals for English-, Spanish-, and Haitian Creole-speaking families.

ABC is a 10-session, strengths-based intervention for parents of young children (0 - 4 years). By strengthening responsive parenting, ABC helps build secure attachment relationships and supports children's emotional and behavioral regulation during a critical period of development.

ABC parent coaches can meet with families in their homes, other residential settings, private library rooms, or another location of the family's choosing. ABC can also be delivered over Zoom. Sessions are an hour-long, and families receive a $200 gift card upon completion of the program.

We're grateful for the incredible partnerships that have helped make this expansion possible and look forward to connecting with even more Delaware families.

If you know a family who could benefit from ABC, we'd love to hear from you! Visit our website to learn more:
