Coming Up - Raising Resilient Teenagers

Free Online Program for Parents

Researchers at Monash University and the University of Melbourne are pleased to offer parents of students aged 12 to 15 a free online parenting program designed to empower parents to make sense of adolescence and parent their teenager with confidence. This program provides strategies for parents to raise a resilient teenager, which are supported by research evidence and international experts in the field. It is based on Parenting Guidelines that were published in partnership with beyondblue and have been accessed by thousands of parents internationally, many of whom have found them very useful.

If you are a parent or guardian of a child aged 12 to 15, you may be eligible to participate in a free trial of the program. After completing a survey, you will receive your parenting program, comprising of either a personalised feedback report and interactive online modules, or a set of five factsheets about parenting adolescents. Participation will take a few hours of yours and your child’s time over 12 months. Both you and your child will be reimbursed for your time.

If you have any specific queries about the program, please do not hesitate to contact the Partners in Parenting team via email, med-partnersinparenting@monash.edu or phone, (03) 9905 1250.
