The course aims to form and develop the professional competencies of specialists who provide support to children aged 0 to 3 years living in families at risk or families in difficult life circumstances, increase parental capacity, and establish interdisciplinary cooperation between community actors to ensure the best interests of each child.

This course builds an understanding of the causes of family crisis, the difference between crisis and difficult life circumstances, and helps to identify opportunities to support families according to their needs.
