Community Highlight

Winter 2004 -- "Conflict happens - big deal!" Marc Denny says as he introduces the topic of Conflict Resolution.

It's how we decide to handle it that matters.

Parents and children learn a variety of techniques for resolving conflict with each other, peers and neighbors.

These workshops are always well attended because the advice is practical, and the method of learning is interactive. Parents and kids participate in role playing.
