What is M-PACT?
Moving Parents & Children Together Programme (M-PACT) is an evidence-based whole family approach which aims to improve the well-being of children and families affected by substance misuse.
This ten-session brief intervention is suitable for families with children aged 8-17 years. Families work together in a friendly, safe, multi-family group environment and assistance with childcare and transport is available if required.
M-PACT supports families to address areas such as communication and coping strategies as well as educating family members on what addiction is and its impact on children and family life. M-PACT focuses on helping and supporting families to make positive changes. It puts children at its heart and ensures that children and young people living with parental substance misuse are safe, visible and their voices are heard.
The programme brings together up to eight families at any one time, where at least one parent has or had an alcohol or drug problem either legal or illegal and where there is at least one child aged 8-17 years old.
