Intense Family Support
Our project's aim is to empower families with skills and knowlege to bring about positive change, to
enable them to achieve better life chances.
Who do we work with...
We work with parents/carers and families who feel they would benefit from family support around situations
they are experiencing, or have experienced, such as family breakdown, domestic violence,
mental health needs within the family, issues relating to alcohol or drug misuse, parenting difficulties etc.
How do we work..
We offer 1:1 support, either at home or other suitable locations.
We base our support on self-assessments of the parent's/carer's and children's/young people's needs and issues.
We aim to build positive family relationship through advice on positive parenting skills, information sharing on health and safety issues,
awarness of what your local community has to offer, and a level of emotional support.
We may accompany parents and carers through court proceedings, or to different appointments.
We take a multi-agency approach to supporting families.
Referrals:
The project accepts self-referrals from parents/carers as well as professionals, for families who have children aged between 5 and 13 years old and live in Erdington, Holdge Hill, Stechford and
Yardley North and areas bordering these wards.
