WDHSCP Cedar (Children Experiencing Domestic Abuse Recovery) is a unique therapeutic group work programme for children and young people aged 4-16. The service also provides a parallel group work programme for mothers who have experienced domestic abuse.
The aim of Cedar is to strengthen the relationship between children and mothers. Cedar gives children the opportunity to explore their feelings in a safe space and gives mums the tools to help their children recover from domestic abuse.
The groups are delivered in community venues across West Dunbartonshire and last between 10 – 12 weeks.
Cedar groups are run by experienced Cedar coordinators and volunteer co-facilitators, who come from a range of agencies and organisations, such as social work, NHS, early years, police and the third sector.
Psycho-educational group work programme for children aged 4 – 16 with lived experience of domestic abuse and a mother’s parallel group work programme.
