What is Positive Discipline?
Positive Discipline Community Resources is a social change nonprofit that supports adults in creating healthy and thriving relationships with youth in homes, schools, and communities. Through the Positive Discipline approach, we teach a model of respectful communication and joint decision-making. Research shows that when adults have more of these skills and tools, and most importantly they MODEL these skills and tools, we see more successful outcomes with young people.
