Parents and caregivers in St. Mary’s County are invited to participate in a series of free interactive workshops which will explore the challenges and skills needed to guide adolescents through the critical “drug-free” years. Guiding Good Choices is a nationally recognized program which encourages participants to work together, with a certified facilitator, to identify opportunities to reduce family conflict, build family bonds, establish clear and consistent guidelines and teach children skills to resist peer influence.

Guiding Good Choices will be offered on five consecutive Thursday evenings from 6:00 – 8:00 pm between October 10 and November 7.

Training and materials are free but registration is required. All program materials are provided through a grant from the State of Maryland […]
