OPEC Hubs are the “go-to” place for parenting classes, events, and resources in your community. Every OPEC Hubs connects families with in-person and/or remote parenting classes, workshops, resources, and family events in all 36 Oregon counties and Siskiyou County, California.
Effective parenting education programs have been linked with reduced family stress; better physical, cognitive and emotional development in children; increased parental knowledge of child development and parenting skills; kindergarten and school readiness; and decreased rates of child abuse and neglect.
OPEC publishes monthly articles and newsletters for families in English and Spanish. These cover the latest parenting resources, translates important research into practical tips, and shares culturally-specific information.
Each year, OPEC compiles a list of the English and Spanish children's books highlighted and recommended in our publications.
