About Parent Child Center
In 2001 the state asked Corbett if he would be willing to contact the board of a struggling children’s community mental health center, Parent-Child Center (PCC). Founded in 1979, PCC was created to address the community mental health needs of children and their families in Palm Beach County. In the 1980s and 1990s, PCC was the premier provider of behavioral health services for children and families throughout the county. Under the umbrella of Community Partnership Group, the two agencies formed a partnership, sharing operational and financial oversight.

Local groups, like your area’s Arc chapter, autism society, or special needs groups on social media, are good places to find resources as well. For additional help, consider working with a social worker and/or case manager.
Even if a provider offers parent training, it may look different from one provider to another. For example, an in-home provider might conduct a parent training session directly following a therapy session with your child to help explain what they’ve been working on with your child. At larger organizations, you might have a support group of families who are dealing with similar issues.
