For parents and youth ages 10-14 in WASD, SFP 10-14 is an exciting opportunity for families as it affords them a chance to spend quality time together while learning new skills through games and interactive projects. For 7 weeks, parents and youth attend a weekly 2 hour session where they will have lots of fun learning ways to promote family bonding, to keep lines of family communication open, and to use their families’ strengths to solve problems together.
Supporting Families
The Strengthening Families Programs: for Parents and Youth 10-14 will begin February 4th at the South Elementary School and March 5th at the Wallenpaupack Middle School.
Supporting Kids
LifeSkills Training is run continually throughout the school year as a PE/Health rotation.
