Kids Feeling Safe Programme
10 sessions of 1 hour each (court approved)
Children often feel powerless and confused in situations of family conflict, because they cannot stop it or understand why it is happening. The KFS Programme is family focused involving the parents and children learning new ways together to make changes within family life that are more fun and positive.

This course is free of charge to those with a protection order. We also have the ability to offer this programme to families where there has not been a protection order but there has been family violence. Please enquire further to determine if you are eligible.

Toolbox Parenting Programme by Parents Inc.
6 sessions of 2 hours each

0-5 & 6-12 year olds
A great programme that teaches parents/caregivers various ways to build loving and supportive relationships with their children and to manage behaviour effectively without 'losing it'.

Teens
We aim to give tools to equip young people with a strong sense of self, responsibility and resourcefulness. Giving help to parents along their journey of letting go and handing over some of the controls as the young person beings to 'fly solo'.

There is a small fee for the Toolbox courses to cover course material.

ruby1.jpgThe name IOSIS is a greek work meaning "the process by which a base metal becomes gold". It is the power of a miraculous transformation and it is our inspiration.

We believe strongly in the power of transformation in people's lives; that despite the challenges they face, we know they can make significant changes for the sake of their children. We are committed to providing a set of practical support and learning processes to encourage, educate and come alongside families who are struggling to change habits of violence, addiction and offending to help them create a safe and secure environment for the children.p_2.gif
