We believe (and the research shows) that people get better faster in groups! The power in the group comes from what we call universality – it basically means that when we know we are not alone, it gives us the courage to learn from others, gain insight to our own lives, and try things we would previously not have tried.
Groups are safe places to connect with others around a shared topic or theme. Activities, discussion, and interaction are tailored depending on the type and goal of the group.
The College Experience provides a place to connect with others and learn more about what you can expect out of the college experience. Throughout this 8 week class, we will be discussing topics such as time management, roommates, stress, substance use, deciding your major, conflict resolution, budgeting & finances, peer pressure, self care, choosing your social group and more.\
The goal for this class is to provide high school, current and prospective college students with the tools that you will need to succeed in college and get the most out of your experience. Sign up to reserve your spot today!
