We believe family connections are essential to treatment and growth. Having the tools to help manage your child’s challenges, strengthen family communication, and maintain self-care are also essential to your child’s success. Green Chimneys offers regular opportunities to build your knowledge as well as a strong network of parent-to-parent support.
Live online workshops are designed to help you expand your repertoire of skills to manage your child’s emotional and behavioral challenges, and take care of yourself in the process. Sessions combine our Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) curriculum with that of Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) in order to provide you with both skills in-the-moment and skills to help you effect real long-term change. Each session will include a large group teach and small group breakouts to allow for questions and practice.
2021-2022 Parent Training Series
Virtual Parent Support Groups are facilitated by Green Chimneys clinicians via Zoom for one hour on the third Tuesday of every month from 6:30-7:30pm. All parents and caregivers are welcome to attend any session; there is no need to RSVP. If the group becomes large, facilitators will move smaller groups of parents into virtual breakout rooms. A Zoom link will be shared with all families to join a session at any time.
For more information or to request access a group, please contact Marina Ineson at mineson@greenchimneys.org
These Katahdin sheep twins were orphaned at birth and came to Green Chimneys during the chilliest part of winter. The children and farm staff carefully nurtured the babies following a strict schedule of bottle feeding, even into the night. Measuring formula to feed baby lambs helps teach children math and measurements, and is very important because baby lambs can get very sick if they are fed too much. The pair grew healthy and strong and is very popular with the children.
