Detail:

This half day training course will support the frontline workforce to recognise and respond to child & adolescent to parent violence & abuse (CAPVA) (also known as adolescent parent violence and child on parent violence). It’s been designed to leave practitioners confident in supporting parents to implement strategies and undertake safety planning. 

Aim of the course:

The training will explore real, anonymised families affected by this specific type of underreported family difficulty. Throughout the programme we use case studies and reflect on these families' stories and journeys. The training provides helpful tools and strategies that parents, and their children find valuable when making changes.

By the end of the course, delegates will:

  • have gained a deeper understanding of CAPVA and its prevalence, what it is, what it is not and how this can be misinterpreted by practitioners and families,
  • have examined the research, reflect on how parents and young people feel about the violence and abuse in the home,
  • become aware of why it matters to parents and carers that practitioners have an insight into their daily lived experience and respond appropriately,
  • have explored prevalence and common risk factors,
  • learned simple and effective strategies and language that can help when supporting parents living with CAPVA, and
  • have become familiar with tools for change that work for both adults and young people affected.

A Note about Groups:

  • Group A training is for people who are in contact with or work regularly with children and young people and with their parents/carers
  • Group B training is for people who work regularly with children and young people and adults who are parents/carers and may have particular responsibility for safeguarding children
  • Group C training is for designated safeguarding leads and managers in organisations employing staff to work with children and families or with responsibility for commissioning or delivering services.

This course is for colleagues that fall into groups B and C.
