Programmes
ROCKS is a weekly group on Thursdays at 4:00pm - 5:30pm for 7-12 year olds who are affected by a family member’s misuse of alcohol and drugs. Addiction affects the whole family. Often, children from addicted homes have difficulty having fun and being playful and take themselves too seriously. Our group provides a safe place for children to come along and have fun. Through attending our group each week and participating in a variety of fun activities children learn safety, boundaries and routines, it’s OK to say no, that they’re not alone.
