Information for Professionals

Families that are struggling to manage relationships and children at home maybe presenting a whole range of different issues for you at work. An unstable or disruptive home life can affect children in many ways, ‘acting up’ in order to be sent home, not understanding boundaries and aggressive and disruptive behaviours. By working with parents to understand changes that can be made significant progress will be seen in other areas of their life.

Information for Parents

Every parent will find it difficult dealing with their children at some point in their life. This does not mean you are a bad parent, but that actually you are quite normal.

This project helps professionals in Exeter organise and run parenting programmes that then help you. These programmes are proven to really help families to come together and solve any problems they are facing. We will set up a dedicated webforum for every programme that runs so you can continue to discuss issues that arise with the group you have done the programme with.
