Non Violent Resistance Programme for Parents/Carers

Trim Family Resource Centre and SMART Project are planning to run a Non Violent Resistance Programme for parents who experience child to parent violence at home.

Non Violent Resistance programme helps to empower parents to take positive action to end the violent and controlling behaviours. The programme has proven to be effective for many families where young people are controlling, violent or abusive towards their parents/carers. Prior registration is required – closing date for registration is 24th January 2022.

An introductory one to one session with parents will take place during the month of February and group sessions will start on 2nd March 2022. The programme will run for 9 weeks every Wednesday (excluding Easter school holidays) from 10am to 12.30pm in Trim FRC, 15 Wellington Avenue, C15 FC03 and will be facilitated by Trim Family Resource Centre and SMART Project.
