Resilient Families - Viva app for iPhone and iPad

The Resilient Families mentoring programme supports parents/caregivers and their children who have been affected by armed conflict and displacement. Over the course of six sessions with a mentor (in either a group or individual setting), families will be supported to ensure that:

• Children are protected from abuse and danger
• Children build resilience, enabling them to move through difficult situations, recognising and building on their own strengths
• Parents have built their own resilience and are confident that they can cope with crisis and care for their children

This app accompanies the programme, and is designed to:
- give parents access to the “parenting tips” connected to each session, which they can refer back to at any time
- allow parents to make a note of their answers to some of the discussion questions, so that they can come back and reflect on these if they want to
- allow Viva (and the partner organisation running the programme) to understand the way the sessions are being used, the impact on families, and how the project can be improved. Data that is collected is completely anonymous, and is used for monitoring and evaluation purposes only
