Centre for Fun and Families – Parallel Groups

IYPP PROJECT

Project Summary

  • The Centre for Fun and Families (CFF) is a voluntary organisation, based in Leicester
  • CFF ran Parallel Groups: ‘The Living With Teenagers’ (LWT) Programme for parents of 11-17 year olds and the  ‘Avoiding Conflict With Adults’ (ACWA) programme aimed at young people who are getting into conflict with adults, peers or authority figures, because of their behaviour
  • The Parallel Group programmes covered 7 weeks for both parents and young people. Both groups had sessions of 2 hours duration
  • Social Learning Theory and Cognitive Behavioural Approaches provide the theoretical underpinning for the group programmes
  • 6 Parallel Group Programmes were run during the project (6 x ACWA and 6 x LWT groups)
  • 25 families completed the programme and filled in questionnaires for the research element of the project
