COBYS Family Services partners with churches, schools, community groups, and businesses to offer a broad range of family life education programs. While we are best known for our parenting courses, our programs share the common goal of supporting the development of human potential by providing parents, other adults, and children with information and skills to foster cooperation, courage, responsibility, self-esteem, and respect. You can attend programs scheduled somewhere else or arrange for a COBYS educator to present a program specifically for your group or organization. Services are provided in central and southeastern Pennsylvania.
Our services include:
- Presentations, workshops, short courses, or extensive 10-week programs.
- Programs offered any day of the week with day and evening hours available.
- Group sessions for children and teens on life skills development.
- Family programs for parents, children, and teens learning together.
- Training and leadership development of parent educators, peer leaders, mentors, and employees.
