Here is a chance to make real changes to how you react to your children. "When Kids Push Your Buttons" is being offered as a year-round course this year only. If you know what it's like to get your buttons pushed, react in ways that fuel your children's resistance, and wish you knew what to do instead, this program is for you. It will give you the on-going support to find out what your buttons are, why your children push them, and how to defuse them so you can regain your sanity, your authority and your children's cooperation. This typically 8 week course will devote a whole month to each session with time and depth to make real long-lasting change. Your everyday challenges from September 2010-June 2011 will be addressed in the context of the course work. Whether you have taken a "Buttons" class or not, this is an hour and a half you will look forward to each week. Bring your lunch and get ready for a lot of laughs, a strong support group, and a real change at home. For parents of any aged children. Childcare available. Workbook charge-$10

Parent-Child Connections program is for parents of 6-12 year olds and provides on-going support and education. The group focuses on the situations that each parent deals with on a daily basis and addresses those present needs in the context of connective parenting. Daily challenged get how-to attention with a foundation of trust, connection, and balance so that a parent's expectations, school related issues, sibling and peer conflicts, the parents' needs in balance with the child's, building self confidence and respect all through connective communication and problem solving. Criticism, punishment and blame break down connection and send messages to children we least intend. Problem solving focuses on the balance of needs within the family and holds children accountable for their behavior and finding solutions.

Young adults (ages 16-30) who experience a developmental disability meet to learn how to make good decisions, understand their choices, learn about their rights and responsibilities, develop confidence and make friends.
