What support is available for parents?
Our Team run parent parent coffee groups across a number of locations in Perth and the Upper South West.
These groups welcome parents in a friendly, respectful and confidential atmosphere. Parents attending often have much in common, and can talk openly about their children’s challenges and triumphs.
Our coffee groups offer the opportunity to:
- Meet with other parents and share experience
- Talk to our experienced staff for advice and strategies
- Discuss services and supports available
- Opportunities for guest speakers
Parents are welcome to bring along children under the age of 6 years old – they will be supervised by our experienced play leaders. Alternately you can come without the children.
