Kids in Control offers education and support to children between the ages 8 and 13 years who have a parent with a mental illness. Once a week for eight consecutive weeks the children meet for 1 ½ hours. During the sessions children are given information about mental illness as well as opportunity to develop and practice healthy coping strategies for dealing with difficulties they may be facing. Using crafts, games and interactive learning activities, children have the opportunity to join together in developing healthy attitudes and coping skills.
