Family Support
We provide limited direct support to both parents and children of one-parent families. This support can be requested directly by parents, for themselves or their child, and by professionals who work with one-parent families.
Parent Support Work
We provide parents with individual support so they can parent effectively ensuring positive outcomes for themselves and their children. This includes practical and emotional supports that help parents with the stresses of family life and relationships. This support is provided by trained staff, individually to parents.
Separating Well For Children Program
This is a specific program for parents/children where interparental conflict is extremely challenging or there is a history or domestic violence. Support for parents includes direct, intervention support and case management, with the aim of preventing escalating or entrenched conflict, and safeguarding concerns in the family, and ultimately promote children’s wellbeing.
Parents can refer themselves for this program or professionals can refer one-parent families they think would benefit from the support.
