This pocket book targets applicant children who notice a change in their parent’s behaviour due to psychological distress or accumulation of trauma. The tool provides some basic tips on how to stay safe and ask for support. It can also be used by professionals working with children to raise awareness on the topic of distress.

The pocketbook is complemented by instructions to support the rollout of the tool.
