Description & Services
Description	Helps children learn more positive ways of dealing with problems. Program is aimed at bolstering children's self-esteem, ability to deal with conflict, and of increasing socially appropriate behaviour. Kids learn how to communicate their feelings effectively, handle conflict through problem-solving rather than fighting, and listen and follow through at home and in school.    The program is not suitable for children with development disorder, pervasive development disorder, profound hearing or sight loss, serious medical conditions or a history of significant traumatic head injury.
