Mid Coast Communities is partnering with the Australian Childhood Foundation to present 'Bringing Up Great Kids' for Aboriginal Families. This is a two-day training opportunity to up-skill community service workers, not-for-profit & NGO providers, government employees, private professionals and community members across the Mid North Coast region to become facilitators of the Bringing Up Great Kids (BUGK) program. The program is a great professional development opportunity for people working with Aboriginal families who would like to be able to run the BUGK program through their organisation or in their community.
Training Overview:

Registration is included in this training and all participants who complete the training will receive access to the ‘Bringing Up Great Kids Parenting Program’ materials, relevant activities and resources.
