Anglicare's  Victoria ParentZone Newsletter 

Parenting is the most important and challenging job in today’s rapidly changing world – but children and young people don’t come with a handbook.

 

At ParentZone, we offer all carers and parents a chance to develop and strengthen their parenting skills and create positive change in their family. We provide free parenting groups, workshops, resources, and training for parents and the professionals who work with them. Our skilled and experienced facilitators tailor the sessions to meet the interests of each group.

 

ParentZone programs cater to all ages and stages, from newborns to teenagers. Programs address the stages and challenges faced by parents including family violence and mental health. Key programs are also offered in multiple languages. Programs are available in person and online. In 2023, ParentZone sessions supported over 6,245 people.

 

Podcasts for parents, carers and those who support others with their parenting.  The ParentZone Teams are delighted to bring you TWELVE ParentZone Pods for you and the families you support. Each Pod identifies and explores common issues parents bring to our parenting groups and offers strategies to try in these situations.
