Overview

The module addresses three main themes: 1. Transient families This theme considers the needs of families and children / young people who may move neighbourhoods and schools frequently. For example, military families, and families in crisis who access temporary housing or women's refuges. 2. Divided families This theme considers the needs of families and children / young people who are separated. For example, prisoners' families, those with a hospitalised family member, familes experiencing bereavement of an adult or child, and families who are experiencing divorce or separation. 3. Transformed families This theme considers the needs of families and children / young people who are experiencing significant changes. For example, pregnant school attenders, teenage parents, families who have adopted children and families where there are changes in identity and gender.
