Parental Alienation Awareness Alliance (PAAA)

The Parental Alienation Awareness Alliance is a specialized post-graduate education and training organization dedicated to advancing professional competency in the identification, assessment, and intervention of parental alienation dynamics. Through evidence-based, multi-disciplinary programming, PAAA equips mental health professionals, family law attorneys, judges, guardians ad litem, child welfare workers, custody evaluators, and mediators with the knowledge and skills needed to improve outcomes for families navigating high-conflict separation and divorce.

PAAA offers a comprehensive suite of training programs — from a 40-hour Foundational Certificate to an 80-hour Advanced Practitioner Certification — along with discipline-specific tracks tailored to clinicians, legal professionals, child welfare workers, and therapeutic intervention specialists. Programs are delivered through in-person intensive workshops, live virtual sessions, self-paced online courses, and flexible hybrid formats designed to meet working professionals where they are.

Beyond credentialing, PAAA provides case consultation services, expert witness preparation, organizational program development, research collaboration, and a growing library of training manuals, assessment tools, and case study resources. An annual professional conference and mentorship program foster ongoing connection and continuing education within the field.

Positioned at the intersection of mental health, law, and child welfare, PAAA bridges the gap between disciplines that too often operate in silos — building the coordinated, informed professional community that families in crisis deserve.
