Social service agencies face challenges in building trust with parents, especially in crisis or conflict situations.
N&R Publications has helped Child Support agencies communicate complex messages effectively, bypassing defensive attitudes and myths, by telling emotionally encouraging stories of successful outcomes, such as parents getting child support order modifications or graduating from drug treatment programs. Seeing stories of others getting help increases readers’ willingness to seek and accept help without losing self-respect.
