Parents Plus is an Irish charity that develops evidence-based, practical, parenting and mental health programmes. Our mission is to improve the well-being of children and families by empowering professionals to deliver our evidence-based programmes in their services.
We have developed seven flagship programmes, in partnership with parents and children living in Ireland. We are committed to researching outcomes and developing effective programmes focused on empowering children and parents to achieve their potential. Furthermore, our trainings are focused on encouraging those working with families, to achieve the highest standards of excellence. You can read more about our evidence-based programmes here.
Parents Plus actively responds to the needs of families in our communities. In 2020 we launch our Special Needs Programme, for parents of adolescents with a learning disability. This programme is the first of its kind internationally and was developed as a response to the significant challenges that parents of adolescents with an intellectual disability can face.
