PATRA’s Strengthening Families, Strengthening Communities (SFSC) parents’
engagement workshop is a violence prevention parent education program.
Groups of parents, within a culturally competent and supportive environment,
are facilitated to explore the building blocks of a successful and violent free
community; factors influencing behaviour; cycles of life – ethnic, cultural, family
and spiritual roots; rites of passages; power, control and pride; circle pf support,
creating a protective environment, anger management and discipline; and family
rule discussions and managing conflicts.
This is a community oriented positive parenting support program that is design
with the required flexibility to cater for the needs of varying community groups
with differing characteristics. The trained facilitators also have extensive
experiences of community work and adult learning, to ensure the sessions are
participant led and engaging.
The two-hour-long free adult only workshop is run on a cohort basis and
registrations are open throughout the year.
