This course provides students with the opportunity to learn about parental mental illness and its impact on children. It starts by teaching students about how this problem affects development and how to deliver support. Next, the course learns about attitudes towards mental health and mental illness in society. It also explores how these attitudes may influence children’s development. Finally, the course learns about the global impact of this problem and how UCL’s time-and-life program UCL School of Languages and Literatures has helped parents with mental illness attend UCL courses.
