Anger Management

Anger Management is a twelve-week program that we have found to be helpful to many families. Anger Management is built around a series of classes that constitute a court-approved program. Most courts and probation/parole programs require individuals with anger or domestic related offences to attend an anger management program. By participating in the program, individuals can meet their court-ordered requirements while also benefiting spiritually. The program consists of 12 class hours, and participants are awarded a certificate documenting their completion of the course. The Anger Management program works hand-in-hand with the judicial system by providing attendance records to the appropriate authorities.

Research shows again and again that it is hard to change habitual behavior, and that it is easier to make a sustain real changes in behavior when you have a good support group. For this reason, if a person is really serious about changing the way he/she handles anger, they are likely to be better off participating in a formal anger management program than taking the self-study approach. A formal program provides structure to guide their change process, helps motivate them to continue to work when they might otherwise want to quit, and helps them recognize and be proud of the progress they make. The certified instructors in the Anger Management Class are well equipped to help people find new direction in their lives.
