Introduction to Reducing Parental Conflict (Tier 2 - 2 Hours)
Delivered by Shropshire Council Children's Services - Strengthening Families through Early Help
Target Audience
This introductory session is ideal for those who have some contact with parents either directly, or by working with their children, or for those who supervise front line workers in Shropshire.
Those practitioners who work directly with families may prefer to attend the full day Reducing Parental Conflict – building confidence and using resources course.
Aim
If you are working with families, you are likely to interact with parents who share that they are discontented with their relationship or even display conflict or tension in their relationship, whether they are together or separated. Research shows that this has a detrimental impact on outcomes for children. This can be challenging – to help you with managing your response, this 2-hour interactive virtual session, delivered via Microsoft Teams, aims to support practitioners to build awareness and develop the confidence, knowledge and skills to work with parents to reduce conflict and improve outcomes for children. All practitioners or agencies that have contact with parents either directly, or by working with their children, can play an important role in identifying and supporting the reduction of parental conflict. Underpinned by a solid evidence base, the session will raise awareness of how conflict may be damaging for children, why it can be hard to address and introduce some simple tools that can be used with parents to break the cycle.
