FETCH
The family Education Training Center of Hawaii is a University of Hawaii- based affiliate of the Family Education Centers of Hawaii, a non-profit, charitable organization. FETCH coordinates volunteer professionals and service-learning university students to provide services to families under stress. We believe people learn best by working in teams and providing services for others, so service skills are incorporated in all youth and parent programs. Team consists of:
- 2 licensed psychologists - 1 licensed clinical social worker - 1 parent educator - 4 graduate assistants - 20 university student counselors in-training - 3 high school student technicians In a 12-week session each semester, FETCH provides parenting education, counseling, and four programs for youth ages 2 to 18. Programs are on Friday afternoons from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. There two 12-week sessions of FETCH throughout the school year. Parents attending all 12 meetings in a session receive a program completion certificate. Goals The purpose of FETCH is to provide all members of distressed families with the skills they need to work together to restore family harmony and enhance adaptation. Our goal is to teach family members the skills they need to set up and maintain a smooth-running family. Parents learn how to organize the family, distribute family work and elicit the cooperation of all family members. Parents learn how to communicate respectfully and effectively. Family members learn how to set rules and routines as a group and what to do if a family member fails to follow the agreed-upon rules.
