Take 3 is a comprehensive programme for practitioners working with parents who have challenging teenagers or teenagers that are at risk. It has been used successfully in many different contexts, including youth justice and in schools.

Take 3 refers to the three core elements of the course: nurturing young people; providing structure for young people; and self-care for parents. It is a group programme but can also be used in one-to-one work. The Take 3 pack is divided into two parts: a basic 10 session course, plus 10 extra optional sessions that deal with issues such as sex, drugs and alcohol, sibling rivalry, step-parenting, and anti-social behaviour.

This facilitators' training course will introduce practitioners to the core principles of Take 3 and prepare them for running the programme with parents.
