Strengthening Families, Strengthening Communities
We are now taking referrals for the Autumn Term the 6-week online course that is facilitated by Race Equality Foundation.
Each online module (completed in the parent’s own time) is followed by an hour's online group support discussion led by a trained and accredited REF facilitator. Each member of the team has attended extensive training, offers a friendly, non-judgmental, inclusive ‘can do approach’ to support parents and receives regular supervision. They also bring with them expertise in working with children, young people and adults, special needs education support, parental conflict and family law.
Parents must be referred or self-refer to Hertfordshire County Council.
For more information and how to refer, following this link. Strengthening Families Strengthening Communities parenting course | Hertfordshire County Council

These workshops and webinars are fully funded. Parents can self-refer and do not need a formal diagnosis of Autism/ADHD. You can find all workshops and webinars through the Local Offer
