Becoming Parents Program

Our Mission

Becoming a parent is one of the most challenging of life’s experiences. With the right knowledge and support it can also be the most rewarding experience life has to offer. We at the becoming parents program believe that your couple relationship is the nest in which your family grows. Our mission is to provide expectant and parenting couples with infant research data, communication skills, and anticipatory guidance that will serve as immunizations against the challenges of new parenthood. We are dedicated to serving couples of any race, creed, culture, class, sexual orientation and ethnicity, whether they are becoming parents by giving birth, adopting or foster parenting. We are committed to rigorous, ongoing, scientific evaluation of our program thereby providing parents with the most scientifically sound information available in the world.

Research has shown that children do the very best in life and in love when their parents have made their couple relationship a priority and a success. At the Becoming Parents Program, it is our goal to provide couples with the tools to make this a reality in their unique family.

Our Values

At the Becoming Parents Program, we value independent, educated decision-making and believe that every parent deserves access to the latest and best research upon which to base unique family decisions. With our program we seek to:

Strengthen families and improve child outcomes
Reduce Relationship distress following the birth of a child
Increase the number of children being raised in two-parent families
Reduce separation, divorce, relationship dissolution
Reduce incidence of post partum mood disorders
Improve society's value of fatherhood
Improve individual coping
Improve health outcomes for families
Reduce health care costs related to the stresses of the transition to parenthood
Reduce domestic violence, child abuse, and neglect with couple-focused skills and infant education
Empower parents by giving them information about what to expect in their relationship, in themselves, and in their baby
Continue to be pioneers in the field of research on the transition to parenthood

Our Vision

The state of the family unit is not well and those suffering the most are the children. We at the Becoming Parents Program are impassioned to change the health of the family across the globe. There is no better time to capture the moment and to inspire positive life choices than during pregnancy. We so believe in our program that we will work to provide every growing family in the world with the opportunity to take the Becoming Parents Program. It is our vision that every couple grow in their love for each other and that every child be raised in a healthy, loving, two-parent family where success begins, and wishes come true.
