The Parenting In Context Project, led by Associate Professor Rachel Dunifon and Extension Associate Kimberly Kopko, officially launched the Cornell Cooperative Extension Parent Education Data Collection System this spring. This online, user-friendly system is designed for CCE parent educators to enter data, collected via pre- and post-survey instruments, from participants of parenting programs that are comprised of at least 6 hours of content delivery. CCE parent educators have received training on entering data in the system and this data will be used to examine and report the effectiveness of parent education programs on both the county and statewide levels, to assess the impact of participation in parent education programs on families across New York State, and to inform research on the ways in which parent education programming impacts parenting behavior.
