Parent Review:

Working It Out has been wonderful to my family – providing great advice when I’ve needed it to work out how to support my daughter. They listen, they’re non-judgmental, and they have taught me so much. I go to a monthly Parent Support Group which has been great – meeting other people face-to-face who are working through similar issues has been invaluable. They have a lot of resources in their North Hobart Office, and have been able to provide training for our school. I’d highly recommend them.
