Mentoring for Families
This program aims to support families with young children by matching them with a trained mentor, to be a trusted friend who can offer guidance, realistic advice and practical support as needed.
The volunteer mentors have enjoyed their own parenting experience. They have undertaken an eight week training program, focusing on parenting skills, developmental milestones of young children, home safety, effective communication and conflict resolution skills and the identification of community and recreation resources that may be beneficial for the family to use.
To enquire about becoming a mentor or for information about the program, contact Chisholm St on 5331 7556.
