Information for parents

• Many children do not have happy family lives and fail at school.

   

   

  Family Links helps change this by training thousands of health, education and community professionals to use the Nurturing Programme so that:

  • parents create a calm, kind, healthy, hopeful family life
  • children succeed and nurture their own children

  The Nurturing Programme is a springboard for robust emotional and mental wellbeing in all adults and children; the foundations for a positive life at home, in school and society.

  The Nurturing Programme

  
  The Nurturing Programme provides simple, effective tools to help adults and children understand and manage feelings and behaviour.

  The Nurturing Programme is universal; it increases the well-being of all families. It is also an effective vehicle for change in vulnerable families.
