Changes at Home Small Group Opportunity
Has your family experienced a relational change that has impacted your child? The Changes at Home small group is designed to teach students how to use healthy coping strategies when dealing with a family change at home, such as divorce or separation. This group may help your child connect with other kids who may share similar thoughts and feelings, reflect on their thoughts and feelings and gain tools to help them cope with their emotions in a healthy way.
If you are interested in your child participating in this small group please complete this Google Parent Permission Form or contact the BBE Counselor, Julie Wimberly at 281-641-1607.
