CAPRICORN REGION The Domestic and Family Violence part of our program has received an enormous contribution from the Family Law Network which is facilitated by Sandy Paton and who seems to be drawing a large number of community agencies to the table through her tireless efforts in organising numerous events and seminars. There is no doubt that awareness of DFV in this region is gaining momentum through her efforts as well as the DV Pilot Program and Anglicare FACIT team has gained in profile as a result. The 123 Magic & Emotion Coaching Program is designed to provide parents with the skills to help them in their parenting role. Parents will learn key ideas about children‟s abilities, the common problems that parents face, and some ways to help them make parenting as enjoyable as possible. 1-2-3 Magic focuses on that parenting should be as easy as possible, while being beneficial to the children. The program covers areas such as: Different approaches to parenting Children can become overwhelmed by too much talk and too much emotion Sorting behaviour Appreciating patterns, changing patterns and resistance Remaining flexible as a parent Choices and strengthening your relationship Parents are able to learn skills that help them step back a bit from what their children are doing and think...what are they feeling here Then they are able to approach the issue from a different angle than what they would have previously come from. Asking these simple questions can then have your child stop and think about their emotions, actions and feelings which will then open up a conversation where they can talk about it. It‟s simple and easy steps like these that make the program enjoyable and beneficial. Being aware of your children‟s feelings, listening with empathy and helping your child label their feelings are easily explained in the emotion coaching component. This is only one of the components to the training. This is the first time that Anglicare has been able to provide this well received training and the registration numbers have been excellent. Parents are becoming more proactive in reaching out to the training that is available for them in the community. Simple parenting tips and training will enable them to build better relationships with their children, while focusing on their own parenting styles and the needs of their children. 32
HELPING PARENTS The TOP Parenting program has started again for this semester and has now been in continual mode for the last four years in which we provide four programs a year. Other group presentations were at the Red Cross centre for “Grief and Loss” and at the Capricornia Correction Centre “Transitions Program: Change in Relationships” facilitated in conjunction with Lifeline. The team has also managed to keep up with intake of referrals, and keep waiting lists to a minimum. Four staff members have continued their professional development training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) by completing their second course recently in Brisbane. Therapy tools include relaxation, mindfulness and awareness skills in working with clients. Additional training for this month was “Understanding Eating Disorders” in Rockhampton, and also at CQU “Women Seeking Safety” DFV Video Conference on 29 th April. 33
