NSCP Reducing Parental Conflict (RPC) awareness and resource training Level 3
Disagreements and arguments are a normal part of relationships. However, when conflict between carers or parents – whether together or separated becomes frequent, intense and is poorly resolved, it can have significant negative impacts on children’s mental health and long-term life chances. The aim of the training is to raise the awareness of parental conflict and its negative impact on children and families, to empower practitioners on how to identify and explore what parental conflict is and its impact on the families we support, and to recognise and have knowledge and access to the resources and support available for parents and carers to promote them improving communication and resolving disagreements more positively. This is a 2.5 hour training event offered via MS Teams.
It is a pre-requisite to the training that all attendees are requested to make an account on the Oneplusone practitioners platform. We will be exploring the content and resources further in the training.
