Afrikindness Parenting with Purpose 6-week Training
Our 6-week Parenting with Purpose programme is a structured, evidence-informed intervention designed to support parents in building safe, nurturing, and emotionally responsive home environments.
The programme demonstrates meaningful engagement in parenting support and aligns with key statutory safeguarding frameworks, including Section 17 and Section 47, as well as Working Together to Safeguard Children (2023 & 2026).
It is particularly effective in supporting improved outcomes for children while helping families meet safeguarding expectations in a practical and culturally responsive way.
As part of the intervention programme, additional tailored training—such as cultural safeguarding, personality awareness, self-care, and other relevant parenting support—can be provided upon request to meet the specific needs of families.
