Accelerated Saturday Workshop Classes
These classes are designed for those that would like to have a detailed introduction to skills in anger management as well as those that need a more timely way of accumulating anger management class credit. Accelerated classes meet on the 3rd Saturday of each month and are 4 hours from 1pm-5pm. We offer classes for both adults and adolescents for anger management. Our workbook has 8 chapters. Chapters 1-4 are covered on odd months and chapters 5-8 are covered on even months. While 1 Saturday class can be taken as a stand alone workshop, we recommend two consecutive Saturday classes to cover all the matieral in our program.
