Programme Aim

The Strengthening Families programme (SFP) is a 14-session family skills training programme. The programme consists of 3 elements:

  • Parent Skills Training
  • Teen Skills Training (12-16 years)
  • Family Life Skills Training

Positive results from over 15 independent research replications demonstrate that the program is robust and effective in increasing assets and protective factors by improving family relationships, parenting skills, and improving youth’s social and life skills.
There are a number of Strengthening Families Programmes being planned across the county.
