Me and my Kids: Parenting from a Distance

This booklet helps non-resident parents retain meaningful contact with their children following separation or divorce. Distilled from a mass of research material, the ideas are presented in a concise yet easy to understand style.

The project was commissioned by the Child Support Agency, the Department of Family and Children's Services and the Family Court of Australia.

Conforming to tight deadlines we

• gathered information from specialist experts in a series of focus groups
• distilled international research and conducted literature searches
• negotiated content with a stakeholder steering committee
• conceived and wrote a 48 page resource to suit men's learning styles.

Under close media attention the booklet was launched at Parliament House Canberra on Friday August 30th, 2002, by The Hon Larry Anthony MP, Minister for Children and Youth Affairs and the Hon Alastair Nicholson AO, RFD, the Chief Justice of the Family Court of Australia. At the launch it was praised for its easy to read style and the practical assistance it gives to all parents.
