Located in Janesville, WI, the Early Teens and High School Program empowers families with essential skills for navigating the challenging adolescent years. Designed for parents and children aged 12-16 from higher-risk backgrounds, this evidence-based prevention program offers a series of fourteen interactive, two-hour group sessions that combine parenting strategies, children's life skills, and family dynamics training. Each session begins with a shared meal, fostering a supportive environment where families can practice their skills and receive guidance from dedicated group leaders. By emphasizing practical support and skill building, we strive to strengthen family relationships and promote resilience in our community.
