Happy Home Project

Happy Home Project is a parent counselling, support and education programme. The Happy Home Project provides a creative healing space for any parent that has experienced trauma in the home. It aims to empower them by giving them training and helping them find job opportunities.

Our social workers explain Government assistance schemes and how to navigate the bureaucracy and open a bank account. The program also provides counselling and life skills. Parents learn about positive child rearing practices to improve their interaction with their children. They meet at the school every Sunday, enjoying and benefitting from each other's company and occasionally having a singing and dancing session. Participation has been life changing for many.
