What are available parenting programmes offered by Families for Life (FFL) to strengthen families?
FFL offers a wide range of programmes to enrich family relationships and build strong and resilient families.
1. Purposeful Play For Parents with Children aged 4 to 6 years old
The Purposeful Play programme is a collaborative effort between the Ministry of Social and Family Development and the Parenting Research Centre from Australia. The programme equips parents with knowledge, skills and strategies to create a warm and stimulating home environment for children, make use of everyday activities to strengthen parent-child relationships and promote children’s language and problem-solving skills.
Cost: Complimentary
2. Triple P (Positive Parenting Programme) for Parents and Grandparents with Children aged up to 16 years old
Triple P is an evidence-based programme that equips parents and grandparents with simple and practical strategies to help build strong, healthy relationships and confidently manage their children’s behaviour. These techniques help to promote the psychological, social, and emotional competence of their children/grandchildren (aged up to 16 years). Triple P follows a tiered system that provides varying degrees of parental support based on individual needs.
For those seeking more flexibility, the Triple P Online (TPOL) programme allows them to complete parenting modules independently and at their own pace. TPOL provides a toolbox of strategies to encourage positive behaviour, as well as prevent and manage misbehaviour.
Cost: Complimentary
3. Signposts

The programme consists of five in-person group sessions, with each session lasting 2.5 hours.
