Nonprofit Overview

Mission: Indiana Parenting Institute is a full-service family resource center. We empower parents with children ages 0-18 years with social and emotional learning (SEL) skills to keep children safe, in school, families together and thriving. PreK-12 schools challenged by the complexities of strengthening the SEL skills of students will also accrue benefits from IPI’s school-based education and support services programs for youth.
Results: Participants of our SEL education programs have acquired strategies for managing strong emotions, strengthened and navigated healthy family outcomes across generations, learned to work effectively with others, solved difficult problems, received job promotions, learned to make responsible decisions, and become actively engaged in their community and their children's education.
Target demographics: Families with children ages 0 to 18 years challenged by the complexities of parenting and raising 21st century children.
