Stronger Families Project
The Stronger Families Project goal is to build a positive relationship between family members, especially between parents and their youth. This is done by providing a healthy and safe environment for families with included dinner to increase family dialogue and discussion of topics that may be too difficult to have at home. These conversations are about peer pressure, stress, and in what ways youth and parents can work together to reach their goals individually and as a family.
