(included in Half-Day and Full Day sessions)
- The Family Systems Theory: This theory suggests that families function as a system and that changes in one part of the system can affect the whole. It can be leveraged within work settings by recognizing the impact of work on family functioning and implementing strategies to support healthy family dynamics.
- The Family Stress Theory: This theory suggests that families experience stress when they face demands or challenges that exceed their resources or coping abilities. It can be leveraged within work settings by identifying the sources of stress for working families and providing support and resources to help them cope.
- The Family Resilience Framework: This framework suggests that families can be resilient in the face of stress and adversity by using positive coping strategies and building on their strengths. It can be leveraged within work settings by helping working parents identify their own strengths and teaching them positive coping strategies to support the resilience of their families.
At the end of this session, participants will have a better understanding of the factors that contribute to family wellbeing and will be equipped with strategies and resources to support the wellbeing of their loved ones.
Participants will be able to identify and address issues related to family wellbeing in their own lives and will be prepared to implement strategies to support the health and happiness of their families.
