Families
to Thrive
Fusion’s Families Course is an initiative of Fusion Australia. This short course, supports parents, grandparents, and caregivers to develop a picture of the family they want, encouraging them to learn and build new skills and strategies and strengthen old ones to grow a family that thrives.
The Families course is flexible and can be run in a variety of formats and time frames. Covers eight topics, the course forms a framework to support warm, strong and healthy family relationships.
Topics include Understanding Ages and Stages, Being Positive, Dealing with Conflict, Effective Discipline, Building Values and Culture, Connecting through Nurturing Skills, Honesty in Relationships and the Journey to Independence.
Parents are encouraged to reflect on their own parenting style and to build on the strengths they bring to their family life each day. The Families Course provides a wonderful opportunity for parents, grandparents or carers to stop and consider their own values, hopes and dreams for their family and families around them.
“I was blown away at how on-point the topics were. Every class, I walked away with immediate actions I could take. Thanks to this course, my family and I have redesigned our values together. Highly recommend it!”
