Melanie Prager, J.D., C.P.E
Co-Founder, Empowered Parenting
Co-Director, RCB of Los Angeles
Kim has been an educator for more than seventeen years. She has worked as an elementary school teacher in the independent school sector. She currently is the Assistant Director of Admissions and Director of Auxiliary Programs at her school, and has the pleasure of working with and teaching teachers, assistants, students, and parents. Kim is most proud of being a wife and mother of boy/girl twins. Being an effective parent is Kim’s passion in life. She says, “…every day I try to be mindful of each decision I make…”. Besides Kim’s experiential background, she holds her Bachelor’s degree, her Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, a Masters degree in Education, and is a Certified Parent Educator. Kim is Co-Director of Empowered Parenting, which offers courses, workshops, and one on one coaching to parents, teachers, grandparents, healthcare workers, counselors, and anyone who relates to children.  Melanie, a certified parent educator, is the mother of three boys. She is dedicated to educating others with the RCB tools, she and her husband, consistently apply which makes parenting easier, more effective, and far more enjoyable. Prior to becoming a wife, mother, and educator, Melanie pursued a career in law, and worked at the Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorneys office for approximately ten years. As a deputy district attorney, she worked in the juvenile system, where she saw first hand the direction children took when exposed to ineffective communication within the home. It was this experience, combined with having children of her own, that convinced her to join together with Co-Director, Kim DeMarchi, to start Empowered Parenting, to teach parents to empower themselves, and empower their children.
All course instructors are trained and certified through INCAF and the Parent Instructor Training Network.
