@comfortblankpod @JimHowick Hi there. Love the show so much. Thank you. When you said 'Peters Friends but good' I laughed out loud...and then could not resist sharing the fact that my wife and I do this self torture / fun / comfort podcast about watching Peter's Friends....12 times. 'Peter's Frenemies'

Redesigning evidence based parenting support as podcasts and other engagement tools online. Work from ActionLab @MonashUni #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official
@SSHavighurst points to how 'Tuning in Online Programs (TOP)' is trying to 'fill the gap' between universal and more tailored parenting support. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official
Principles for a Digital Practice Framework shared by @Barnardos_IRL. A nice example of being nimble but remaining robust in family support. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official
A nice start to Day 3 of the International Congress on Evidence Based Parenting Support. So much great research and content to come back to over the coming weeks. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official
A great Day 2 panel discussion. So relevant to anyone providing primary prevention to parents on children's emotions and behaviours. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official E.g. the @RCN_AUS's 'Raising Healthy Minds' app. raisingchildren.net.au/guides/raising…

Coming up soon at #ICEPS2023 in D5 Implementation Science Symposium 2.15 pm AEST. Hope to see you there!
PRC's Dr @_M_S_Harrison will be presenting at #ICEPS2023 at 2.15pm today as part of a symposium that will examine three key relational parenting programs and approaches used to measure outcomes.
@parentingrc CEO Warren Cann and the Windermere organisation talk about co-design and the implementation of an evidence based practice framework through real world champions and quality improvement. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official
Derek McCormack retweeted
Helpful paper, shared by @rsbeidas at #ICEPS2023 gives concrete activity examples that can support equitable implementation
@Mel_Woodfield @PAFRA_Official @Rsbeidas Often we online support developers say 'content is king', @Rsbeidas just shared the idea that 'context is queen'. Excellent!
Derek McCormack retweeted
Today's #ICEPS2023 keynote is @Rsbeidas on implementation science.
...and offers some nice, simple definitions:
Professor Rinad Beidas reminds us that Implementation science is really driven by the passion to ‘do what we know’ so people are getting the things that work. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official

📢Remember that today #Eruofamnet members are at International Congress on #Evidencebased #ParentingSupport #ICEPS2023 presenting research findings on evidence-based #familysupport and its implications for #policy and #Practice
Amit Baumel and colleagues at University of Haifa address 3 great questions about Digital Parenting Programs (DTP). Check out their 'Future Directions' Symposium. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official @Parentingrc @amitba

A pleasure to present this work at the International Congress on Evidence-Based Parenting Support. Let's engage parents from the beginning. #ICEPS2023 #sportparenting #conferenceseason

Contextualising @IncredibleYears in translations can work when you use culturally meaningful graphics and text, e.g. from Carolyn Webster-Stratton #ICEPS2023 presentation. This is one example ...

Fresh perspective on time-out, a strategy many parents use. #ICEPS2023
GMA is very excited to have our Director Prof Mark Dadds on the ICEPS program later today! He will be talking about 'Parental discipline strategies in the age of child mental health, attachment, and trauma: A contemporary look at time-out'. #ICEPS2023 #GMA #CYMH @PAFRA_Official
A nice example of planning for participatory research and adapting parenting support online. In this case from Euijin Jung and team at Boston College. #ICEPS2023 @PAFRA_Official @Parentingrc
All parents need some kind of support - but the type, dose and form need careful consideration. Sheila Manji reminds us of some key parameters. @SheilaManji #ICEPS2023
