Raising Highly Capable Kids™

Raising Highly Capable Kids (RHCK) is a 13-week evidence-based parenting program developed to build stronger families by empowering parents with the confidence, tools, and skills they need to raise healthy, caring, and responsible children.

Our program increases parents’ knowledge and skill level of the essential building blocks every child needs — the 40 Developmental Assets from Search Institute, which are proven to increase childhood resiliency and academic achievement. 

Program Distinctives

Raising Highly Capable Kids brings unique offerings to any community wanting to engage parents and families.
RHCK is a parent-facing program that trains the primary influencer of a child, their parent or guardian.
RHCK has gone through a rigorous third-party evaluation. The study concluded that by engaging in our program, parents increased their knowledge and skill level of the essential building blocks kids need.

RHCK has high impact when there is a strong coalition of like-minded community leaders and stakeholders that wrap around families going through our program.

The RHCK curriculum is currently available in four languages: English, Spanish, Chinese, and Arabic.

 

RHCK products are produced economically, passing on the savings to communities that purchase our training and materials. We also offer a number of community program grants each year.

RHCK Regional Representatives are boots on the ground in your community to cast vision, strengthen your community coalition and train knowledgeable and effective facilitators of the program.

Before these classes, I was abusive to my wife and children … my family was in turmoil, but since I’ve taken these classes, there’s no more turmoil at home. I am a better man because of these classes, and I like myself now. If it weren’t for these classes, I don’t know where I’d be today.
