Family Wellness
Imagine families being able to take a course together to learn the principles and skills of healthy family living. In fact, this is not a new concept; family wellness courses have been developed in America over the last 30 years, and are now used in many countries outside the USA. Since 1980 more than half a million families worldwide have benefitted from these programs.
Survival Skills for Healthy Families is a twelve-hour program, delivered over six sessions. The whole family will learn relationship skills, whilst putting parents firmly in charge of the family.
- Survival Skills for Health Families involves all members of the family, from eight year olds to 80!
- The program also caters for single parent and step families.
- The program has been honed over three decades with families from the San Francisco Bay area; it was also used in church and community settings across a broad range of social levels.
The family wellness programs transfer very easily into the Australian culture.
The Survival Skills for Healthy Families Program will teach people:
- Practical, lifelong skills, to strengthen, support and empower families.
