Strengthening Families Program for Parents and Youth Ages 10 through 14 Years at Stevens Middle School (1139 W 14th Street) beginning October 30th, for seven sessions.
To register, call Susan Hillgren, 360.670.4363, or email her at susanhillgren@olypen.com.
The Strengthening Families program was developed by the Washington State University Extension program. This session is sponsored through a grant obtained by The Answer For Youth.
Help your youth prepare for his or her teen years. Avoid problems with drugs and alcohol and strengthen family communication.
Join us for seven sessions: Family discussions and games, a free meal, childcare, door prizes, parent discussion and youth activities.
Parents/caregivers will discuss what youth this age are like, making rules and consequences, how to solve problems with youth, ways to show love and support. Youth will learn to handle frustration, resist peer pressure, appreciate parent/caregivers, and get along with others. Families will participate in activities and games, discuss what makes a family strong, and solve problems together.
