Classes and Groups
Crisis intervention strategies, such as bringing a child to the Crisis Nursery before the caregiver becomes abusive, is only the first step in rebuilding a stable, nurturing family.

Parenting Class
Families can easily fall into old patterns of behavior since the crisis has been resolved, unless they are taught more effective ways of interacting.

Anyone who has been affected by sexual abuse, in anyway, is welcome to participate in the class.
