1/17/14 - Several parenting workshop classes are being offered by LACASA starting in January and February. Registration is now open for three programs aimed at helping parents improve their communication skills, set boundaries for their children, and strengthen their families. The Fathers-Only Parenting Program is an eight-week course beginning January 29th that will focus on helping fathers, stepfathers, and male role models maintain healthy relationships with their children. Then, on February 4th, LACASA will begin the 12-week Strengthening Families program, which is meant to help parents of children between the ages of 3 and 11 manage stress and solve problems that arise with that age group. Both of those classes cost $100 to participate, which covers the whole family in the young child program. Finally, on February 19th, the seven-week Creating Lasting Family Connections program will begin. This free program aimed at the parents of teenagers focuses on how to enforce healthy consequences, avoid power struggles, and spot the changes in a childâs behavior that might indicate drug abuse. For more information on any of these programs, follow the link posted below. (TD)
