Reducing Parental Conflict Pathway Briefing

Conflict between parents is a normal part of relationships although there is a large body of evidence that shows that where parental conflict is frequent, intense and poorly resolved, children experience a decline in their mental health and poorer long-term outcomes.

The Briefing is designed to build practitioners awareness and knowledge of Parental Conflict, the impact of this on children’s development and emotional wellbeing and introduce The St Helens Reducing Parental Conflict Pathway Model. We will also introduce programmes that can support parents are together or separated where conflict has been identified to improve relationships which in turn, can then improve outcomes for their children.

Practitioners from a range of agencies play an important role in identifying and supporting the reduction of parental conflict.

The Reducing Parental Conflict briefing builds awareness, knowledge and helps the practitioner recognise risk factors which may lead to parental conflict and interventions to support parents find positive resolutions.
