Partners Achieving Learning & Support – P.A.L.S.
This unique support group was created specifically for teens dealing with those important middle and high school issues and is facilitated by graduate students of The Ohio State University. The mission of P.A.L.S. is to provide members with skills and knowledge that will assist them as they transition into adult life. Each teen benefits in ways distinctive to him or her. Some participants learn how to better socialize while others may gain knowledge on how to have empathy for others and nurture their relationships. Past topics include improving self-advocacy skills, resolving conflict, and dealing with death and grieving. This is a free six-week program held twice each year.
