What it is:

First developed in 1985, the “Learning to Live, Learning to Love” program is designed to help students build healthy relationships by bringing closure and healing from past events; while teaching important life skills many have missed in childhood. We believe that behaviors don’t “just happen”. Although in its earliest form, the curriculum was developed to support and aid people involved in abusive relationships, the program has evolved into a process that, while still helping those that are desperately wounded, will also enrich any person’s life.” (from lifeskillsclasses.com)

 

What we do:

We restart the emotional maturing process in the brain using "tools" which rewire the brain. 

 

what it is not

The “Learning to Live, Learning to Love” curriculum is not psycho-therapy or group counseling. It is also not a “tips and tricks” course.

 

What the key is:

The "secret" of the curriculum is in the process. Other programs often distribute information and give behavior techniques. Life Skills uniquely provides "tools" to be learned during the semester-long course and used during two and half years after the course. Consistent application of the tools has been found to lead to permanent healing and emotional maturity.

 

What is covered: The curriculum covers a wide variety of topics that benefit all students by helping them understand and change the way they think. Topics include…

What is the cost: The class fees are determined on sliding scale, based on an individual's income. We will make sure that financial concerns are never an obstacle to one’s healing and growth.
