The Child Protection Authority (CPA) recognises that positive parenting skills are necessary attributes to reduce or eliminate incidents of child abuse.
To this end, with funding from the United Nations Children Funds (UNICEF), the CPA is undertaking training in Level 3 Parenting Facilitation.
Offered by the Grenada National Training Agency (GNTA), the Caribbean Vocational Qualification (CVQ) course is expected to produce 20 trained facilitators by the end of the second quarter of 2019.
The goal, thereafter, would be to conduct parenting sessions within various communities.
The authority believes that providing this kind of support to parents would promote positive behaviour among parents and children in 2019.

good afternoon,
I am UK born but of Caribbean decent and am trying to break into the market within Grenada. I have over 25 years working skills, experience knowledge and qualifications within Youth Justice, Children and young people services, Regeneration, training development and employment, Counselling and adult safe guarding. This has been within the private and Local Government sector. I have recently set up a business called Creating Together Ltd whereby I have put together all my attributes attained and am keen to utilise the skills I have of supporting the vulnerable as well as companies within the Caribbean.
I have tried many avenues and yet this is proving to be a difficult process. I have tried all the Grenadai websites and the emails just don’t work. I have even tried via the UK Grenada Embassy.
I am told the Caribbean need people like me who want to go back and offer their skills, knowledge and expertise. If there is anyway you can direct me how to bridge this gap in light of the work you do I would be most grateful.
