The College Transition:
"I think the two groups method (students & parents) is a very strong, effective method for this topic and age group. The “group” legitimized our discussions with our teen and made this a subject that we could discuss with less condescending from our teen. If we had said we were going to have a written plan (in the areas covered) we would have faced a lot of resistance. Instead with all youth doing the same things with their parents, this process became a “norm.” Worked great!"

"I wish I had taken this program when my FIRST child went off to college!"
