Abstract
  • Family Hope is an organization that provides childcare hosting to families in vulnerable circumstances. While children are in hosting, support coaches work with their parents to provide resources and offer social support. Support coaches needed additional resources to address parents' occupational wellbeing. Occupational therapy met this need by creating a transition tool of educational resources to empower parents through establishing healthy roles and routines, coach parents on connective, TBRITM parenting techniques, and to equip parents with executive functioning skills to promote family cohesion and occupational balance. The transition tool was piloted including eight sessions with one Family Hope mother. To assess parental competence, self-efficacy, and occupational performance, the Parental Sense of Competence Scale and Canadian Occupational Performance Measure was administered before and after intervention. Overall, parental competence, self-efficacy, occupational performance, and satisfaction improved after intervention. Support coaches will continue to use resources within the transition tool to assist families in need.
