dc.description.notesFor more information see "Parents Accepting Responsibility - Kids Are Safe (PARKAS)" on our Good Practice Database.<br/ >This manual provides session plans and resources to deliver a ten-week programme for children aged between 8 and 12 years and their mothers or carers who have experienced family violence. Importantly, the group aims to create a therapeutic learning environment where children have the space and safety to express their feelings as a consequence of experiencing domestic violence. An underlying aim of the programme is to create opportunities for sharing between mother and child that reinforces reconnection and opens up communication about experiences and facilitates emotional healing. Parkas differentiates their programme from others in the following ways: It is a combined mental health and community health programme using expertise in local communities; the same leadership team is involved in all aspects of the programme delivery to ensure connectedness, continuity of relationships and understanding of individual and family issues and dynamics; emphasis is place on the process of sessions and exploration of issues rather than sessions becoming too dictated by content. It is intended that each session build on previous sessions and provide the foundations for future sessions. Material covered within the programme flows across both the children's group and the parents groups. Authors emphasise the programme requires skilled facilitation and is demanding in terms of time and emotional energy.en
