Welcome to  Circle of Security Parenting

"Where There's Breath, There's Hope." ~Tonier Cain

In 2003, the creators of COSP brought the developing Circle of Security Parenting™ Intensive program to a remarkable setting—a women’s prison outside Baltimore, Maryland. The Tamar's Children project was actually a jail diversion program—the goal was to focus rehabilitation on helping women overcome their histories of trauma, substance misuse and shattered relationships. Expecting mothers were enrolled in their last trimester and expected to stay in the program until their newborn was one year of age. One of the twenty such mothers in the study was a woman named Tonier Cain, whose incredible life story is captured in the award winning documentary, Healing Neen. This study made it clear that the Circle of Security Intensive program was relevant to even the highest risk parents. Tonier, for example, had been imprisoned more than 60 times, was living on the streets and suffering from addiction and had already had four children removed from her care when she enrolled in the Tamar’s Children project.      On September 13, 2019 the Blue Ridge Partnership for Children hosted the motivating speaker Tonier Cain-Muldrow at an event in Burnsville, NC.  Tonier Cain-Muldrow gave her most intimate testimony of how God and COSP helped turn her life around.  (see https://www.circleofsecurityinternational.com/toniers-story/ ) Our ministry's leadership was privileged to attend this event. Our own path began then to pursue Circle of Security Parenting, and to bring it directly to our community.

      Circle of Security Parenting™ is a program based with decades of research and reaches to all household types in the family circle.  COSP™ thrives from securing the parent-child relationships and continuing to support and strengthen these relationships.           

 

At times we all  as parents can feel lost or inexperienced about what our child might need from us.  This donsn't make us a bad or wrong parent. In the Circle of Security Parenting course you will learn simple tools that lead to notable results.  Just imagine what it might feel like if you were able to make sense of what your child was really asking from you.

Through these personal encounters, God is  changing generational curses
into generational blessings and
is now changing legacies that will affect multiple generations to come.

My Thoughts & Experience Learning about Circle of Security Parenting has radically changed my approach to parenting. I have taken parenting classes in the past. They were informative and helpful, but I always felt like there was a missing piece. I saw the blind spot that had been blocking me from deeply connecting with my daughters. It would have been easy to fall into blame and shame about what I had or hadn't been doing but, from the beginning of the course, it was made extremely clear that it is never too late to change the way we parent. Relationships with our children can be repaired - once a true reconnection has been established. I am so grateful to Camille and Lisa for creating a safe space to reflect on beliefs around parenting and the hope of reconciliation within my family. Facing the reality and consequences of my choices was an extraordinarily humbling experience and would not have been possible without the guidance and encouragement from these two wonderful women. This course made me radically change my approach to parenting and I will be forever grateful for the commitment they displayed, and the many prayers prayed for me and my three daughters. ~Chelsea, Mother of 3
