Yvonne* a mother of 3 children is on a low income and struggling financially. One child is on a waiting list for an ADHD/Autism assessment. She is suffering from low self esteem, low confidence and struggles to manage the behaviour of her oldest child who is working with the Blossom team.
The family worker has helped Yvonne with managing her finances and she is now back on track with her bills. She has registered with a training provider to give her vocational skills to help integrate her in the world of work. The team have also discussed strategies for managing her children’s behaviour and are looking at referring to our Children’s Family Worker to support them.
Yvonne is happy to have her finances back on track, she is attending college and is hoping to have a career in the beauty industry. She feels that the strategies are helping her cope better with her children’s behaviour.
