Attachment Parenting International

The mission of Attachment Parenting International is to educate and support all parents in raising secure, joyful, and empathic children in order to strengthen families and create a more compassionate world. Everyday we reach thousands of families around the world. We have 79 support groups in 8 countries and 36 states and we are continuing to grow. Through education, support, advocacy and research, our principal goal is to heighten global awareness of the profound significance of secure attachment - not only to invest in our children's bright futures, but to reduce and ultimately prevent emotional and physical mistreatment of children, addiction, crime, behavioral disorders, mental illness, and other outcomes of early unhealthy attachment.
