  • (1888PressRelease) June 04, 2025 - Goodyear, AZ – Parent Pathways Academy (PPA), a mission-driven nonprofit dedicated to strengthening families through education and community, has launched a free parenting app designed to support parents from early childhood through every school year.

    This free app is now available on the App Store and Google Play, offering access to expert-backed tools, family-friendly learning pathways, and a community of support—all at your fingertips.

    “Our mission is simple,” said Tracy Harrelson, Executive Director of Parent Pathways Academy and M.Ed. graduate of George Mason University, “We want to make it easier for parents to lead with confidence. This app puts reliable, supportive resources directly in their hands.”

    What’s Inside the PPA App?

    * Tailored Learning Pathways: Personalized support based on your child’s age—perfect for parents of toddlers, teens, and everyone in between.

    * Self-Paced Video Lessons: Topics include academic skills, digital safety, and emotional health—with badges to celebrate progress.

    * Community Support: Join other parents for guidance, encouragement, and shared wins.

    * Free & Flexible: All content is mobile-friendly and completely free.

    Whether you're a new parent looking for sleep tips, a homeschooler needing academic guidance, or simply navigating digital boundaries with teens, PPA has something for you.

    Designed for Real Life

    PPA’s app includes microlearning modules (5–8 minutes each), customizable dashboards, push notifications for new content, and even gamified badges for completed courses because parenting support should be rewarding, not overwhelming.

    “We know parenting doesn’t come with a manual,” said Jennifer Stephens, Ed.S., M.Ed., Dean of Education at Parent Pathways Academy. “This app is like having a free parenting coach in your pocket—whenever and wherever you need it.”

    Parent Pathways Academy is more than a resource—it's a community. Led by experts like Julie King, M.S., B.S.W., Dean of Family Services, whose background includes school counseling, social work, and Indigenous cultural studies from South Dakota State University, PPA partners with schools, libraries, and local organizations to help families feel supported, connected, and confident.
