Groups & Educational Workshops

Parent & Caregiver Workshop


Compassionate Connections is pleased to offer workshops that focus on assisting parents who are struggling with their child's behaviour. These workshops are delivered from an attachment perspective, and are meant provide additional tools for parents to utilize during times of conflict and stress. These two hour, stand alone workshops are designed to augment the skills parents already have, as well as increase feelings of self-efficacy and effective parenting by focusing o​n connecting emotionally with our children and exploring conflict as a form of communication. It is recommended that both parents attend the workshop.

Emotion-Focused School Support


Emotion Focused School Support (EF-SS) is a simple and efficient model for increasing the capacity for school staff to support the mental health of children and their parents. EF-SS is offered so that it can be applied in a way that supports students to regulate their emotions and re-engage in the learning environment, while respecting the primary mandates of teachers, aides and support staff. EF-SS is designed to be simple and effective as to avoid adding to the already high demands of the school day.



We acknowledge that we are in Mi’kma’ki , the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) People first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations.
