Guiding Good Choices Begins

Family Services is offering Guiding Good Choices, a free prevention program that helps parents guide their children through the formative years.

Field-tested and research-based, Guiding Good Choices helps reduce the risk that children will become involved in unhealthy behaviors. Parents will learn how to set clear guidelines and consequences, manage family conflict, and strengthen family bonds.

The program will be held on six consecutive Wednesday evenings beginning February 22. Each session will run from 6:30-8 p.m. at the Rupert Elementary School Library, 1230 South Street, Pottstown. The program is free, and free childcare is available. Pre-registration is required. Registration deadline is Friday, February 17.
