Support Groups & Classes

Healthy Relationships

In this group, we explore the elements of a healthy relationship. We develop techniques for boundary setting, assertiveness, realistic goal setting, and decision making. We increase our understanding of abuse, abusive family dynamics, dysfunctional family patterns, and feelings, with an emphasis on anger, fear, anxiety, guilt, and grief. For more information, send an email to ellenn@awareak.org or call (907)586-6623.

Nurturing Parenting Program

The Nurturing Parenting Programs work with the whole household to build nurturing skills. Each family gets a plan for support and learning based on their unique needs through a combination of one-on-one sessions with the family, as well as group sessions with other families. By building nurturing skills, we focus on the positive and take concrete steps toward healthier family dynamics. These programs are trauma-informed and evidence-based, with a 35-year track record to back them up. Click here to learn more.

AWARE also works in partnership with other youth serving organizations in Juneau to facilitate a support group for LGBTQ2+ youth. For more information, email merylc@awareak.org
