Parent Programme

Studies have demonstrated that the family is the key foundation to a person’s development. A caring atmosphere at home, good parent-child relationships, effective communication and appropriate disciplining can help to foster young people’s judgment and self-control, preparing them to face the effects of peer pressure and to prevent drug abuse.

LEAP’s parent education programme “Drug Free Family – A Preventive Education Programme for Parents” comprises eight two-hour interactive sessions for Chinese-speaking parents of primary and lower secondary students.  The programme introduces parenting and psychology theories and explores real life applications with parents through the use of trigger videos, role play and discussions.
