Summary
This booklet is the first step to including parenting and child wellbeing issues into your standard practice. It outlines how to include parenting issues in a broader client assessment. The content of Booklet One is intended to create awareness of the importance of the parenting role to an individual's wellbeing and their ability to achieve change. By addressing parenting issues as set out in the booklet, it is anticipated that workers will be better able to help their clients with their alcohol and drug problems and a broad range of other problems associated with parenting stress and child health and behavioural problems.
