Active Parenting Publishers has provided research-based video education programs to parents and professionals since 1983. Our Story

The goal in Dr. Michael H Popkin founding Active Parenting Publishers(APP) was to apply state-of-the-art educational technology to the field of parenting education. The APP model is largely based upon the theories of Alfred Adler and Rudolf Dreikurs as it relates to

an “authoritative approach” to parenting as opposed to an “autocratic or permissive” approach. The first three years of the company were devoted to research and development, as Dr. Popkin’s vision of integrating video and group discussion into advanced education programs evolved. In June 1983, APP incorporated and introduced the Active Parenting Discussion Program (APDP), the world’s first video-based parenting education program. Delivered in just six 2-hour sessions, the program was highly successful. Following the success of APDP, APP went on to produce numerous video-based parenting curriculums, including those for families with young children, teens, and stepchildren, among others, in both English and Spanish language versions. In 2000, APP continued its pioneering tradition by launching the world’s first video-based online parenting class. This program combines video, reading, and group discussion—all administered online. APP products are distributed throughout the US as well as worldwide, including Canada, China, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, and Sweden. APP also conducts Leader Training Workshops (https://www.activeparenting.com/for-leaders/research-studies-tools-and-tests/leader-training-workshops/) and Trainings of Trainers (https://www.activeparenting.com/for-leaders/research-studies-tools-and-tests/training-of-trainers/) throughout the country to teach professionals and volunteers how to lead a group using the APP programs. Leader training is available all over the world via live classes, live webinars, and online leader training workshops. Today, APP continues to operate out of Marietta, Georgia, a town just northwest of Atlanta, providing quality education programs for parents, children, and teachers to schools, hospitals, social services organizations, churches, and the corporate market.

Active Parenting parents take education seriously. They understand that it is about more than just grades; it is about fostering a desire to learn. Children will likely become lifelong learners when their curiosity is sparked, when they experience the pleasure of discovering something new, or when they read something that moves them. Children will want to keep doing things that feel good…. 👀🧡💙💛👀Continue Reading by hitting the link below or visiting our website www.ActiveParenting.com

Juneteenth (short for “June Nineteenth”) marks the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, TX in 1865 to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed. These quarter million enslaved people represented the last in the country to be told of their emancipation, giving Juneteenth its unique significance. The following December, slavery was to be abolished in the United States when the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution was ratified.

In 1866, free Texans began the first annual “Jubilee Day” celebration on June 19. The troops’ arrival came a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth honors the end of slavery in the United States. Initially, once the enslaved received this proclamation, they took part in parties, family reunions, barbecues, reading, and hosting various church services. They carried out actions they were once restricted from enjoying.

Juneteenth has impacted the narrative crafted on freedom, liberation, and legacy. The event that transpired on June 19, 1865, was not the beginning of Black people’s quest for freedom and our continued celebration of this holiday will ensure that we will never stop seeking freedom.

Parenting classes are a wonderful way to increase your confidence, acquire new skills and strategies, learn more about your child's development, and improve your relationship with your child and partner. Hope Haven Children's Advocacy Center offers a parenting class to fit the need of every family.

Active Parenting Publishers know that being a “successful parent” means more than providing food, clothing, and shelter. It requires taking an active role in a child’s growth and development, and an active approach to parenting.

Parenting Key by Active Parenting Publishers ❤️
As a parent, have you ever noticed that bedtime can be a challenge? 😴 Dr. Michael Popkin with Active Parenting Publishers shared in his recent blog helpful tips on how to help our little ones go to bed.

This past weekend three of our coalition volunteers were able to be trained on Active Parenting of Teens by Active Parenting Publishers to better serve the parents of Maryvale.
I just learned about your program. When I Googled "Dr. Michael Popkin" this is the unfortunate result. I know this is the wrong state, and not even the same type of doctor, but busy parents might not pay attention to details. Not sure what can be done to avoid the wrong impression here. Something for the SEO team to figure out?
Our company is having major concerns regarding the Active Parenting Program we recently purchased. We have tried to make contact multiple times via email and have not gotten a response. We recently called the 1800 number which directed us to an online survey for a free cruise. We plan to use the Active Parenting program with our court mandated parenting class component we offer. So far we are waiting (and are concerned) about their level of post purchase support.
Excellent program!!!
I am a Parent Educator and have been using your materials since 1986 with much success!
