Early Intervention- Parents Under Pressure Program
The Early Intervention-Parents under Pressure program aims to focus on families with identified vulnerabilities and intervening by building their resilience and parenting strategies to manage the stressors of parenting in this 8 week support group for parents in the Mornington Peninsula shire.
It also focuses on building their resilience to become attuned and connected positive parents.
