We can help you communicate more effectively with the people around you.
Participants in Children’s Home Society & Family Services Anger Management classes learn how to identify and express anger appropriately and respectfully. Presentations and class discussions help participants understand their individual pattern of stress and anger, and learn emotional regulation, conflict resolution and respectful communication skills.

-
Gain new tools to deal with anger more effectively
