Children, young people and families
A family of resources - it is all about prevention, education and resilience
For the last 17 years we have been developing resources and materials that support work with children, young people and families. For children with a parent or parents who have alcohol or drug problems, they often don’t understand what is happening or what they can do.
Through the stories of the animal characters, we focus on the core protective factors of social and emotional learning, interpersonal relations, communication and resilience.
The resources have been developed to span across different ages, as well as at different levels – from generally developing resilience across all children, to specifically supporting children who are affected by parental drinking. They can also be used in a variety of settings including across education, children’s services, family support and treatment services – in both the statutory and third sectors.
