This article discusses the author's early experiences in the area of clinical parent training and his desire to impact a broader population of parents. He discusses how an evidence-based clinical parent training program was used as the basis for developing both a self-guided program and a parenting class curriculum tailored to serve parents of young children with less severe (nonclinical) oppositional behavior. He also discusses the development of a parenting education program that targets a broader population of parents.
