TEEN'S TRAINING PROGRAMS
Teenagers are in an exciting, yet complex phase of life, facing new experiences and challenges. Certain safety-related decisions will have a lifelong impact. We help teens make informed choices by giving them accurate information about situations they will face. This is done in a safe and empowering format by skilled trainers. Each level of training offers a Parent Guide - this includes simple follow-up exercises and escape moves, for at-home practice. Information leads to beliefs and beliefs lead to actions.
TESTIMONIAL
As a child psychologist and trauma specialist, I feel this training is the best way to learn what feels okay and what to do about it when it is not okay. It is past the time for a program like this to be an essential part of school curriculum and parent education. It has been formulated in the most tasteful, fun, appropriate and empowering way - while hitting all the most important information. It's hands-down brilliant and essential!
