A worker may authorize basic training when parents or caregivers need to improve their parenting skills. The training may be provided individually or in groups and in any appropriate setting, including the home. When a worker authorizes training or when a court orders training, the parenting education programs must be:
• evidence-based; or
• promising practice.
These programs must be used and offered in the parent’s or caregiver’s community, when such programs are available.
Texas Family Code, §§265.101, 265.102, 265.103
