I want to tell you about a program called S.T.E.P. Systametic Training for Effective Parenting. We here in Macomb County Michigan are lucky to have this program offered throughout the County. It is in part funded by the Macomb County Office of Substance Abuse and through federal, state and local funding. When my wife and I took the class about 5 years ago I had heard good things about it and I was interested in learning what I can to better help my children. I didn't realize it at first but I was feeling very angry at the leader and thinking "What could she possibly tell me on how to raise my children? I am a good person I will do a good job in raising my own children!" but as class went on I found out that this is not what it was about. It is about choices and looking at things in a different way then what most of us are used to. If you live in Macomb County Michigan call.     (810) 412-0088

Marriage Encounter, is a weekend away from home, family and responsibilities where in a comfortable, secluded environment a couple is guided in the discovery of new techniques of communicating and sharing with one another. It is not a retreat, but it is a program designed to give couples the opportunity to examine their lives together, their weaknesses and strong points, their attitudes toward each other and toward their families. Couples are given the opportunity to look at themselves, privately with their partner in an honest, face-to-face, heart-to-heart encounter.

Engaged Encounter, is a weekend experience designed to help couples prepare personally and as a couple for marriage. The focus is on the marriage, not on the wedding. "A wedding is a day ... a marriage is a lifetime." Couples are shown communication and decision-making techniques they can use throughout their lifetime together. Engaged Encounter is specifically designed for quiet reflection and discussion by each couple. It is a positive, simple, common-sense experience between two people who are either seriously considering engagement, engaged or recently married. At no time will the couple be asked to share their private experiences with the group.

Pro bono programs are operated by state, county or local bar associations; by legal services programs; by other agencies in the community or independently. They use local attorneys who have agreed to provide free legal representation to eligible persons referred by the pro bono program.
