"I have been a champion of ATTACH™ since the beginning and proud to offer it to our families at CUPS. ATTACH™ fills a void in the parenting programs out there by focusing on helping parents be more reflective in the relationships with their children. We have seen spectacular results"

- Carlene Donnelly, former Executive Director of CUPS Calgary

"ATTACH is one of the biggest joys in my work. I love it and it’s quick to see change. Boosts the parents self worth in it too. And crazy change in their reflection by session 7. I cried with my 4th client cause it was actually night and day her change in responding to her kid."

- Michelle Pearcy, ATTACH™ Facilitator at CUPS Calgary

"At Alcove Addiction Recovery for Women, we have been seeing a need for attachment-based programming for the mothers in our care for a long time. We are happy that ATTACH™ can help. In fact, parents are finding ATTACH™ helps them recognize the needs of their children and how to handle situations. For example, if the child is upset and non-verbal, the mom uses ways they are taught to view the situation to comfort, fostering attachment."

- Cheryll Nandee, former Executive Director of Alcove Addiction Recovery for Women

"Participants have shared that they enjoy and benefit from ATTACH™ and are willing to take the bus in all weather to take part in the ATTACH™ program. Participants and staff say the program improves serve and return and attachment and it is unlike any other program they are involved in with surprising benefits."

- Michelle Haywood, Program Manager, Elizabeth House

"After taking the ATTACH™ Program, I've realized that my parenting style can be categorized into two phases: before and after. The program has had a profound impact on my life, and has changed not only how I parent, but also how my husband and daughter experience life. I am passionate about the benefits of the program and try to encourage my friends to give it a try, but it can be difficult for those who haven't taken it to understand the value of learning and practicing such simple yet effective techniques in a workshop setting."

"The ATTACH program is changing my relationship with my sons. I came into the parent support program with the goal of building a connection with my children, and because of the ATTACH™ program, I am building that connection. I am so thankful for the opportunity to learn these {Reflective Functioning} skills and I am learning with my husband, and now we are talking about our children's thoughts and feelings in the moment or right after something has happened."

"It’s really helped me to look at how I treat my kids and act around my kids. So when I’m angry, I’ve really been paying attention lately to how it’s been affecting my kids. So I’m trying not to show it so much around my kids."

- ATTACH™ Parenting Program participant

"In some situations when I’m upset, it made me think, why am I upset? Why is she upset? I need to see from her eyes and just understand from her eyes, just to, you know, to communicate."
