The 24/7 in the Home Programme

SNAP (Strengths and Needs Analysis Programme)

- Identifies strengths and areas for improvement to enhance parenting capacity.
Why Do We Use Pictorial Aids?
The SNAP programme incorporates pictorial aids throughout the sessions to enhance understanding and engagement. These visual tools are particularly effective in helping parents grasp complex concepts and relate them to their real-life situations.
Visual Learning: Pictorial aids simplify the communication of ideas, making it easier for parents to understand and retain information. This is especially beneficial for parents with learning difficulties or who struggle with traditional verbal or written communication methods.
