We all want to help our kids thrive, but sometimes it’s hard to know how. When you run into parenting challenges, having reliable guidance to turn to can make a big difference.

The Positive Parenting, Thriving Kids Project is a series of 20 free videos that feature more than 150 caregivers, kids, and experts talking about some of the most pressing, confusing, and challenging questions that parents face. With support from California Governor Gavin Newsom, First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom, and the Department of Health Care Services, these videos are designed to help every parent and caregiver in California and beyond support their kids’ mental health fitness and self-esteem in today’s stressful world.

The series is organized into four categories, each containing multiple videos. Each video has been created in both English and Spanish. Ver episodios en español

For each video topic, you’ll also find a downloadable learning guide with tips, tools, and suggestions for additional evidence-based resources and programs that may help you and your family.
