Vision
EMPOWER migrant parents to adopt a positive attitude when they experience new practices in their new environments.
Build RESILIENCE of parents and offer resources which facilitate the ability to parent effectively.
Promote INTEGRATION that takes into account engraved life scripts which change to compensate for cultural differences and disruption of family roles.
Foster INCLUSION in methods used to validate customs from family’s culture of origin which tend to contribute to discrimination and social exclusion when not inclusive.
Encourage PARENTING that is positive and adequately supported by community support services and is more accessible for migrant families.
