FOCUS Alternative Learning Center offers an adolescent boys' group that has been running for over 4 years.  The group meets weekly from September through June for 3 hours and provides an opportunity for the boys to discuss important issues and receive support.  It has proven to be very popular and enriching for the boys.

At their request, the group focuses on the issues that they identify as concerns.  As space is limited, we are asking that each boy make a commitment to the group that includes attendance and the desire to take our time together seriously, as it is not only a "social" group but an "agenda" group as well.

The group leaders must be notified if someone cannot attend a group and the cost of a missed group is forfeited.  If group needs to be canceled for any reason, a make-up group will be offered at no added cost. 

If parents would like to talk with any of the group leaders, we are available from 3-3:30p during check-in. 

Please feel free to call us with any questions or concerns.  We look forward to working with kids and their families to have a winning year.
