The Survining The Tweens Program walks parents and their upper elementary or middle shcool child through the Strengthening Families Program(SFP). SFP is a fun, family group for all types of families: traditional, single parent, blended, adopted, and multi-generational.  This class will give youth and caregivers tools to successfully transition into the teen years. Youth learn how to effectively negotiate and co mmunicate with parents and friends.  Parents learn what is developmentally appropriate for teens so they can set limits and grant privileges.  Youth (age 8 - 13 years) and Parents go to separate classes for the first hour and then families get to spend quality time together and practice skills allowing youth to have a stronger voice in the family.  

Dinner provided and enriched child care will be available for children under 8!
