February 2, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cherbourg parents and care-givers have been invited to take part in a free “positive parenting” program next week which aims to build on the strengths and resilience of the community.<\/p>\n

For the past two years Darling Downs Health, via Cherbourg Health Service, has been working with CRAICCHS and the University of Queensland to roll out Indigenous Positive Parenting Programs (Triple P) in the community.<\/p>\n

The programs are known collectively as “D\u2019arin Djanum”, which means “strong together”\u00a0in Wakka Wakka.<\/p>\n

Clinical psychologist Arvind Ponnapalli, co-ordinator of the project, said it aimed to provide positive support for parents and families.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe D\u2019arin Djanum project rests on the proven fact that \u2018strong together\u2019 families can create a strong foundation for children, support their growth and development, guide them through challenges of life, and teach positive cultural values,\u201d Mr Ponnapalli said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAccording to a recent independent report by the Murdoch Children\u2019s Research Institute, Triple P is one of only two programs given a \u2018very high\u2019 evidence rating in an international review of 26 parenting interventions designed to prevent or reduce the negative impact of adverse childhood experiences.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is why we\u2019re extremely excited to be offering our first Indigenous Triple P group program which will be held over three days on February 9-10 and March 2 at The Ration Shed Boys Dormitory conference facilities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cTo complete the program, parents or caregivers must attend each of the three days from 9:30am to 2:00pm.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will be led by local practitioners who know the Cherbourg community and is free to Cherbourg parents, grandparents and carers of children between two and 12 years of age.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr Karen Turner, from the University of Queensland\u2019s Parenting and Family Support Centre, said Triple P programs were the result of years of program development and research.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe parenting support programs we are drawing on are backed by more than 300 trials and studies showing that families find the positive parenting strategies helpful,\u201d Dr Turner said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs program developers we have had wonderful opportunities to work with many different communities to adapt the program and resources for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families.\u201d<\/p>\n

Parents and caregivers interested in registering for the Indigenous Triple P group program should contact Cherbourg Community Health on (07) 4169-8900 or CRAICCHS on (07) 4169-8600.<\/strong><\/p>\n

COVID-safe catering, including morning tea and lunch, will be provided. Participants will also receive free Triple P resources.<\/p>\n

A Darling Downs Health spokesperson said more parenting groups and seminars were planned for the rest of the year to coincide with the school terms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
