Changing Children’s Worlds Foundation’s (CCWF) goal is for every child to be positively supported by every adult in their life. CCWF offers two programs to support communities: 1. International Child/Parent Development Program (ICDP): A program which trains parents, children, and caregiver facilitators to implement empathy-based interactions into their daily lives. ICDP curriculum is also used in parent/caregiver and child learning groups throughout the community. These groups ensure that children are supported in a positive and loving way. 2. Integrative Youth Development Program (IYD): An empowering initiative to measure and increase the number and quality of supportive people a child has in his/her life. IYD offers school and community-based mentor training at the elementary and high school levels.
