Keeping Track of Teens

Last night, parents packed the Eckstein Middle School library to hear David Hawkins from the UW Social Development Research Group (SDRG) and Ruth Herold from Changes Parent Support Network talk about "Keeping Track of Teens".

Dr. Hawkins encouraged parents to take advantage of the free Guiding Good Choices workshops being offered by the Prevention WINS coalition in northeast Seattle. The SPF-SIG grant that covers the cost of these workshops ends in September 2010, so time is running out for parents who want to take the workshops for free!

The SDRG website contains links to many presentations given by Dr. Hawkins and his colleagues at SDRG, especially Richard Catalano. One of the presentations, Good Parenting IS Prevention, is mainly about Guiding Good Choices.


David Hawkins and Ruth Herold answer questions from parents.
