Build stronger connections with your teen.

Connect is a free 10-week program that helps parents and caregivers of youth (ages 12–18) understand and respond to their teen’s challenging emotions and behaviours. Each week, you’ll meet in a small group with trained facilitators to explore key principles of attachment and adolescent development through discussion and reflection.

Weekly Topics Include:

  • Understanding Attachment
  • All Behaviour Has Meaning
  • Conflict Is Part of Attachment
  • Empathy: The Heartbeat of Connection
  • Balancing Needs & Building Resilience
  • Growth, Change & Staying on Course
