This workshop presents a philosophy and strategies that can help parents help their teens make the right choices. (formally “Teens in Trouble”).(6 hours)
“Fostering has been one of the most rewarding experiences in my life. It is also one of the most difficult . I’m not sure I can keep this up much longer”.
