NCB Now: NCB holds event for Incredible Years

NCB Northern Ireland recently organised a sell-out event on the Incredible Years programmes. For anyone unfamiliar with the term, Incredible Years is an early intervention programme for parents, children and teachers originally developed in the US over the past 30 years.

 The programme is now recognised as among the best evidence-based methods for the prevention and treatment of conduct disorder and violence in children and young people.

Delegates gathered at the one-day event to consider how to develop delivery of the Incredible Years programme and to discuss the challenges faced by practitioners and commissioners.

One delegate commented: "This event has been a fantastic opportunity to meet fellow practitioners and I hope NCB continues to bring us together."

Speakers included Professor Judy Hutchings, director of the centre for evidence-based early intervention at Bangor University, Frances Molyneux from NCB Northern Ireland, June Onyekwelu from Barnardo's Northern Ireland and Maria McAleese, educational psychologist at SEELB.
