Fortalecimiento familiar y prevención de conductas de riesgo en los hijos con la aplicación de talleres para padres del programa Familias Fuertes

Abstract

Abstract:This research addresses family strengthening as a strategy for preventing risky behaviors in adolescents, through the application of workshops from the "Strong Families" program. The overall objective was to implement this program with parents to analyze its impact on communication, boundary setting, emotional support, and protection against risky behaviors. The study was conducted in an educational institution with the participation of a group of parents. A qualitative approach with a quasi-experimental design was employed. The techniques used were bibliographic research and training workshops, while the instruments consisted of reflective activities and guiding questions applied in each session. The results showed changes in the perception of the parental role, greater openness to dialogue, emotional recognition, and the application of rules with a formative purpose. It is concluded that family guidance strengthens bonds and fosters protective environments for adolescent development.
