Preparation Program
The key to success is preparation, but most mission preparation courses are designed for adults. For families moving to a new cultural setting or simply going on short term mission, Kath provides an interactive tailored two- day or four-day program for all ages.
Learn games and discussion starters to help the whole family express their excitement and worries.
Create tools to help families stay connected to extended family, friends and precious parts of their culture and identity.
Build visual aids to help everyone understand the process of transition.
Receive additional materials to support your child or young person during this transition.
Debriefing
Provide preventative care for children and young people transitioning between cultures, through an in-person or online debriefing session. Debriefing allows children and young people the opportunity to share and reflect on their experiences.
Help children begin grief-processing associated with transition.
Detect emotional patterns to assist parents in finding effective child-specific strategies to assist in transition.
Assess emotional wellbeing and receive recommendations for potential follow-up care
Child Safety
Child Safety is in an important part of supporting our children living in new cultural contexts.
Kath offers age specific training for children and young people with skills to protect themselves and get help when they need it. Training is based on materials from Second Step: Child Protection Unit.
