Sharon’s group teaches children ages 10-12 yrs important life-skills of Self-Empowerment.

This group will run for seven sessions, and all seven sessions will take place in person. The first 45 minutes of the session will be for your child and the last 15 minutes will be for parents to hear a summary of the session, and ask questions.
