This brand new course aims to build your understanding and capacity to identify children vulnerable to mental health difficulties. You can then reflect on how you and your organisation can better support parents and families with a view to improving the mental health outcomes of infants and children.
The course will support your practice by exploring the impact of parental vulnerabilities on the social and emotional wellbeing of children, helping you understand intergenerational issues, considering the parent-child relationship within the context of the ‘whole child’ (ecology, environment, networks), and reflecting on the strengths and vulnerabilities surrounding the child.
The course is estimated to take six hours to complete (including watching videos and completing the assessment). However, you can complete the course in several sessions at your own pace. The last page you visit will be bookmarked so that you can jump straight back to where you left off – whenever it suits you, 24/7.
