EDUCATION. PREVENTION. STRATEGIES.
Education Services bring about awareness and strategies that will teach life’s coping skills.
EDUCATION CLASSES
PREVENTION EDUCATION
An educational and interactive workshop that helps youth and their parents recognize and develop strategies to avoid making choices they will later regret, strengthen their decision-making skills and improve communications. The attendees also learn The 40-Development Assets which promote healthy, caring and responsible members of society.
These workshops are conducted for school-aged youth and their parents, and they are usually court-referred by Montgomery County Judges.
