2.5hr interactive face to face workshop for organisational and sector leaders
This two and a half hour workshop seeks to highlight the needs and experiences of children and families impacted by parental mental illness and other adversities. It is with the understanding that children and families who experience varying levels of adversity present to all sectors including health, education, and social services.
Children of parents with a mental illness and other adversities are at a greater risk of experiencing a range of behavioural, educational, social, and developmental challenges, and are at higher risk of experiencing their own mental health difficulties themselves. Practitioners from all sectors who work with children, adults who are parents and families play a key role in supporting child and family resilience and child social and emotional wellbeing.
This interactive workshop will explore how relational approaches can support children and families across services and professions, as early as possible and in consideration of the child and family’s whole context.
