Unit 10 – Managing Aggression and Violence (Optional Unit)

About

Unit 10 – Managing Aggression and Violence (Optional Unit) READING LIST FOR UNIT 10  "Beyond consequences, logic and control”  by Bryan Post & Heather Forbes. Unit 10 is an optional unit designed for Parents, Significant carers and Supporting Professionals where there is aggression and violence perpetrated in the home.  Completion of this unit will give the learner deeper understanding of the links between early experiences of developmental trauma which can lead to violence and aggression being demonstrated at home, whether this is violence towards family members or generalised destructive behaviours. The learner will explore issues of adverse early experience, neurological development, attachment theory and key triggers which will give them a sound knowledge base to be able to identify essential strategies which have been proven to be effective in de-escalation and relationship repair.  In addition the main model of Child to Parent Violence proposed by Haim Omer and developed in the UK by Peter Jakob – Non Violent Resistance – will be discussed to understand how the strategies can be implemented and why they are effective. This unit has been designed to allow individual strategies to be developed for Parents and Significant Carers as well as giving greater insight and tools for Supporting Professionals to enable them to have more effective positive impact on families that struggle with aggression and violence.
