The forthcoming Strengthening Families Programmes for the Ards and North Down Area (Starting Jan 2018) is currently open for family referrals. This globally recognised and evidenced parenting programme provides a unique opportunity for both parents and young people to work together to improve their relationships.
Are you working with any eligible families who you could refer to the programme and would be willing to participate?
Maybe you have families on a waiting list who could benefit from participating in Strengthening Families whilst they are waiting to access your service?
The attached leaflet show the referral pathway and provides some basic information about the programme (targeted at any family with young people aged 12-16).
