Tools for teenagers 12 weeks NVR Session- Thursday 30 January 2020, 5-7pm
Growing Minds is a three year support project which increases children and young people from African and Caribbean heritage communities access to mental health and wellbeing services and skills up parents to better understand their children’s wellbeing and mental health needs.
We also support the charity workforce and parents to better understand the wider wellbeing matters such as contextual safeguarding and to access key courses such as mental health first aid. Adverse childhood experience and in increase representation of African heritage men.
As part of our support to parents we have planned two taster sessions and three courses that will take place out of hours for (12 weeks). By the end of the course parents will have the tools to cope with the teenage years and access to support from parents who previously had children with challenging behaviours or were at risk of exclusion.
With just 2 hours per week for 12 weeks we want to assist more parents to open their eyes to young people’s journey when they make the transition from primary to secondary school and secondary school to the responsibilities that adults are expected to meet.
Our NVR sessions are aimed at African, Caribbean parents (ACH) that have children aged 9 - 25yrs.
