Work/Life Training
Substance Abuse: What Families Can Do
Families are often drawn into dysfunctional relationships with chemically dependent loved ones. This training focuses on the issues families must deal with when confronting substance abuse. Typical roles
of family members are identified and discussed. Resources for ongoing help and support are also identified.
Supportive Parenting
Without diminishing the child's positive sense of self, supportive parents teach children the reasonable consequences of their choices. This workshop teaches participants how to use new tools for getting
their children to cooperate, while maintaining their role as supportive caregiver.
Grief
People experience grief in different ways. Even so, there are some common stages and emotions that most people experience. This workshop will outline the stages of grief, common reactions, and “do’s
and don’ts.” Participants will also learn the difference between normal and aggravated grief.
Healthy Family Relationships
Most people end up in committed relationships—such as marriage—without acquiring the skills to sustain and improve them. This training will outline the qualities of a good relationship, common
sources of problems, differences between men and women in intimate relationships, and practical strategies to improve relationships.
Mental Health and Stress
Stress can be a healthy part of life when it offers us the energy and adrenaline needed to face challenges. When stress is prolonged, however, it can lead to physical and mental illness. Participants will
learn how to distinguish between healthy and unhealthy stress and to recognize the symptoms of mental illness commonly associated with prolonged stress.
Successful Budgeting
While a budget is a plan for spending and saving money, it can also be motivating and educational. Participants in this training will learn how to develop and stick to a budget.
