Strengthening Families Strengthening Communities is a 13- week course taking place at Markfield community centre from September to December 2022.

SFSC is a parenting programme designed to support parents to raise happy and successful children. The programme provides parents with access to information and strategies for bringing up their children, meeting other parents, and making sure their voice is heard.

The 13-week course includes:

  • Understanding communication and how to improve this
  • Introducing a ladder system of behaviour management strategies
  • Reflecting on the challenges of being a parent and our own family values
  • What it means to be a community and celebrate cultural diversity

“This programme and its facilitators have opened my eyes to so much, I am much more patient with my child, more confident as a parent and use the FIRST-THEN tool all the time now – it really works. Thank you I’m so grateful!” – Parent.

With facilitators trained and accredited by the Race Equality Foundation, SFSC has been delivered at Markfield several times, always achieving great results, empowering parents, giving them tools, strategies and confidence to face the challenges of raising children.

“Here at Markfield we add some content to the SFSC programme to reflect the needs of the families who use our services. We focus on our children’s additional needs and the specific challenges they face.” Facilitator
