Strengthening Families, Strengthening Communities for Parents with Learning Difficulties
The Elfrida Society with the support of the Islington’s Parent Support Commissioner will be running a specially adapted version of SFSC Course. This course will be helpful for parents who are parenting full time, with support or who have regular contact with a child not living with them.
The course will provide parents with the opportunity to look at parenting issues in a supportive setting.
They will learn new skills in how to set boundaries and build self confidence in their parenting. It will help parents develop confidence and self esteem in their children.
The course will last 16 weeks with one home visit.
It will take place at Highbury Roundhouse on Fridays, starting early January 2010, between 11- 2pm and will include a light lunch. Childcare will be provided.
