Our Families In Crisis Conference, now available online – Join Mark Gregston for a two-evening online Families in Crisis seminar designed to equip parents and grandparents with practical tools, insight, and encouragement for navigating the challenges of raising teens and pre-teens.
Spend a few hours with Mark Gregston, a man who has worked with parents and their teens for over 50 years, on a special Families in Crisis online seminar. This guy knows what he’s talking about. He has given his life to help parents and teens, and now can be heard on the Parenting Today’s Teens radio program that is heard on over 2,000 outlets, or the his podcast of the same name that has reached hundreds of thousands.
He founded the Heartlight residential counseling center for struggling teens that has now helped over 3,600 parents and teens. Glean from his lifetime of wisdom and his in-depth insights. He’s a man that is practical and dedicated to equipping parents with some new tools to help manage their sometimes out of control households.
If you have a pre-teen, prepare for those upcoming years. If you have a teen, gain an understanding and practical ways to help your adolescent flourish. And if you’re a grandparent wanting to meaningly engage with your teen grandchildren, then this is a seminar for you.
Join us for 2 evenings….2 evenings that might just change the destiny of your family.
