| Abstract |
INTRODUCTION:-
KASIH Keluarga Ceria Program is a comprehensive initiative aimed to bolster the family institution in Malaysia, which is a cornerstone of national well-being. This program comprises two modules, namely:
i. Psychoeducation Module
ii. Support Group "My Therapeutic Family" Module
These modules were based on the Family Psychological First Aid (F-PFA) model, jointly developed by NPFDB and Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI). The model integrated fundamental family dynamics, functional family systems, and Psychological First Aid principles recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO).
The Support Group "My Therapeutic Family" Module complements the Psychoeducation Module by focusing on maintenance, particularly in the post-intervention phase, addressing crisis management within the family unit.
The objectives of this program are:
1. Enhance parents' awareness regarding mental health and adaptive skills;
2. Educate parents with knowledge of Family Psychological First Aid (F-PFA);
3. Empower parents with referral skills for psychological assistance;
4. Establish support groups platform for parents; and
5. Forge intelligent collaborative network between NGOs, agencies, and referral experts. |
