No one is immune from family issues, and they are often just a part of life. Some issues, however, like talking to kids about an upcoming divorce or childhood stress and disorders, can be significantly impactful events that few are prepared for. This course provides family survival tactics to prepare for and thrive through some of the most difficult events. Though this course was intended to be part of the peer support bundle, it can be helpful to anyone going through similar events, or anyone wanting to offer a friend or colleague assistance. This can be taken as a single course or as part of the peer support bundle.
