The Parenting Skills & Anger-Management Program is an extension of The Father's Heart Ministries. Our goal is to see lives rebuilt and restored. The book of Malachi says: "He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to their fathers."

This course, taught by our Chaplain, Sheila P. Johnson, has two components: (1) Anger Management and (2) Parenting Skills. We hope that this course will stimulate students' thinking, increase awareness of their actions and help to develop their parenting skills.

Our curriculum is ACS-approved and runs for 8 weeks. A certificate is granted upon completion. The topics include:

• Redefining parenthood, what do parents expect from children; what do children expect from parents; single parenting; children in foster care
• Anger management
• Stress reduction
• Domestic violence
• Separation and loss
• Discipline through love and limits; providing structure; setting limits; establishing boundaries
• Listening skills; effective questioning; encouraging growth; tuning in to children and techniques to help your child listen to you

Our next session begins Wednesday, March 5 and ends April 23, 2008. Class time is 7:00 to 9:00 PM. For important enrollment information, please call 212-375-1765 extension 5 or send an email to
