For men, the primary places men learn about these issues are in the families in which they grew up, through their other childhood experiences, and through societal messages about what it means to be a “real” man. Most people have not had the chance to learn about the negative aspects of abuse and control. Participants are encouraged to look at this program as a learning experience rather than “have to”. The program offers new ideas, attitudes, and skills for day to day living. Eventually, they will destroy the relationships that are most important. If these behaviors and attitudes do not change, they will continue to create problems for you and others in your life. This program gives individuals the opportunity to look at and change destructive behavior. The bottom line is that abuse and control hurt you and the people who love you. The program specifically addresses patterns of abuse and control. A New Way is a 52-week curriculum offered by Granite Wellness Centers and delivered by certified instructors in both Placer and Nevada Counties.
