This process evaluation of the King County Parents for Parents Program (P4P) examines the program’s efficacy and suggests areas for continued improvement. The evaluation has five objectives: describe the components of the P4P; describe the participants in the P4P; examine parental perceptions of the overall dependency process before and after; dependency 101; consider potential areas of improvement for the P4P; and make recommendations for future implementations of the P4P. The findings indicate that the P4P is beneficial in: educating parents on the dependency system; reducing anxiety about the dependency process; improving perceptions of CPS; and reassuring parents that they are not alone.
