Course Overview

Engaging with fathers & significant men is an important part of child protection and safeguarding practice. Men may be involved in families in a range of ways and may need support in the process of becoming effective parents. This course explores the historical context of fatherhood and considers learning from SCRs, research and evidence based practice when working with men, the blocks to engaging with and working with men and the risks of ‘hidden’ men. It also looks at a variety of skills and techniques for assessing their parenting roles and engaging and supporting them as fathers.

Learning Outcomes

  • Explore ways to maintain a focus on significant males involved in a child’s life, and the potential implications of his own needs and his role within the family
  • Consider how to involve significant males in assessment and planning, and learn practical strategies and skills to maximise this engagement
  • Identify the barriers to engagement with and from significant males, and how to overcome these barriers
