e-Parenting Network

 
So… what IS e-Parenting Network?

It's a series of TV shows… but it's more.It's a web site… but it's much, much, more than that! It's an information resource for Canadian parents… and it's more than that, too!

e-Parenting Network is interactive web TV where you can watch programs about parenting issues, read and download valuable information, and e-mail in questions you have about issues that are important to you as a parent. Together, you, guest experts, and your host Jayne Glenn will look at: Breastfeeding, Safety in the Home, the Car, and in the Neighbourhood, Climate Change, Nutrition for Toddlers and Kids at School, and Effective Parenting Strategies. There are special pages (areas of this web site) dedicated to each topic, and each page includes viewable video, downloadable and printable documents, and research material as well as links to other resources.

e-Parenting Network, funded in part by Human Resources Development Canada, is the brainchild of CICH - the Canadian Institute of Child Health. This multi-media program allows families to access, from their own communities, evidence-based parenting information delivered in an easygoing, friendly manner.

e-Parenting Network is all about accessibility: bringing the expertise closer to the parent - either live through the Internet or via the e-Parenting Network web site.

Keep an eye on the CICH web site (www.cich.ca) for the air dates of the live sessions. To learn more about e-Parenting Network and how you and your community can participate please contact the Canadian Institute of Child Health (613) 230-8838 or cich@cich.ca.
