Please join us for a special interactive program focusing on building trust and connecting with our grandchildren. While this program is geared towards grandparents all are welcome and these techniques can help all relationships! Our speakers will share the Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) approach. CPS is a way to work through challenges by focusing on understanding and solving problems together. Instead of using punishment or rewards, this method encourages calm, respectful conversations. By empathizing with each other, clearly defining the issue, and coming up with solutions as a team, CPS helps create better communication and stronger relationships.
