Online Group

About the Program
Starting Monday, March 23 from 7-8:15 pm CST Via Zoom

The group helps teens understand why these patterns develop and teaches practical tools to manage urges, reduce shame, and make healthier choices. Participants explore how emotions, habits, faith, and culture shape sexual decisions in a safe and supportive space. Through teaching, reflection, and guided conversations, teens learn to move beyond shame and secrecy toward clarity, responsibility, and growth. Parents are included at key points to support understanding, communication, and ongoing growth at home.
