Learn about the Levels of Triple P

The Triple P – Positive Parenting Program isn't a single program, but rather a suite of interventions of increasing intensity for parents of children birth–16 years.

Within each level, there is also a choice of delivery methods. This ensures Triple P is flexible enough to meet the needs of individual and specific communities. It is designed to give parents as much help as they need – but not too much – to prevent over-servicing and encourage self-sufficiency.

  • Level 1, or Universal Triple P, is a communications strategy designed to reach a broad cross section of the population with positive parenting information and messages. It is not a course or personal intervention delivered directly to parents.

    Stay Positive is the creative face of Universal Triple P. This high-impact communications campaign includes a range of materials (including brochures, posters, newspaper columns, billboards, etc.) that aims to put parenting on the public agenda and to raise awareness of the need to support parents in this vital role.

    Universal Triple P aims to: destigmatize and normalize the process of seeking parenting help.

    Encourage parents to participate in positive parenting interventions

    Increase the visibility and reach of positive parenting interventions
