"SUPPORTING PARENTS PARENTING ALONE"

 

From time to time you may feel as if you have the weight of the world on your shoulders, others don't seem to understand, or you don't want to burden them with your problems by telling them how you feel. Being a lone parent can be very rewarding, but sometimes the responsibility can be overwhelming and seem like a lot to cope with.                                                                                                                                          Here at South Tipperary Lone Parent Initiative we offer support and provide a safe caring and confidential place where you can talk about your life and find solutions that get you back on track again.

We offer a listening ear and a friendly word when life goes wrong as it sometimes does. We provide information on rights and entitlements, and help find answers to such questions as? “Where do I?”       “How do I?”     “How can I?” Training continues with Strengthening Families Strengthening Communities Parenting course in early 2011 Skills for living Peer support and Personal development with an experienced counsellor/ trainer continues in early 2011 Looking forward to meeting or hearing from you in the 2011 Training and Support   Please ring, E-mail, or call to office to register your interest in any training, we will keep your name on file and contact you when we have training classes booked.
