What Is the CCD Family Support Hub?
The CCD Family Support Hub is an online collection of parenting guides, courses, and interactive tools created by the Center for Child Development.
The resources are designed to help parents better understand their children's emotions, behavior, and development. Instead of sorting through conflicting information online, families can find straightforward guidance organized around specific parenting concerns.
Parenting Topics Covered
Families can explore resources related to:
- Tantrums and emotional outbursts
- Anxiety in children and teens
- ADHD at home
- Autism and neurodiversity
- Sibling conflict
- Bullying and peer pressure
- Gentle and responsive parenting
- Toddler behavior
- Parenting teenagers
- Separation and divorce
- Child and adolescent brain development
- Parents' stress and emotional well-being
Available in English and Spanish
New resources are added regularly. Several parenting guides, behavioral trackers, and introductory courses are available in both English and Spanish to support bilingual families. Look for the "Disponible en Español" label or select the Spanish filter in the resource library.
Courses and Parenting Guides
The Hub includes interactive guides, masterclasses, and courses you can complete at your own pace. Available programs include the 10-module Raising Children on the Spectrum course, the Mom Mental Load series, and the Strong Family skills course.
Each resource focuses on practical information you can apply at home. Explore a topic when a concern first appears, return to it for a reminder, or use it alongside support from your child's therapist or healthcare provider.
Tools to Help You Recognize Patterns
The Hub also includes private tools for tracking moods, behaviors, and family goals — so you can notice patterns that are otherwise hard to see.
For example, tracking when a behavior happens may reveal connections to sleep, school demands, schedule changes, or stressful situations. You can use what you learn to guide conversations with your child's therapist, teacher, or healthcare provider. A private journal is also available for recording concerns, questions, and observations.
Find the Right Resource More Quickly
Not sure where to begin? The AI Resource Finder connects you with relevant information in seconds. Enter the issue you are facing, and the tool recommends related resources.
The Resource Finder provides educational guidance only. It does not diagnose conditions, offer therapy, or replace professional care.
Crisis and Safety Resources
The Crisis and Safety Center provides crisis contact information and a private family safety-planning tool.
