Oakton Hosts Adolescent Conduct Conference
Parents, therapists, and teachers are invited to attend a conference focusing on adolescent behavior disorders, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m., Friday, May 11, at Oakton Community College's Ray Hartstein Campus, 7701 N. Lincoln Ave., Skokie.
Explore a systems-based approach to treating teens who "act out" at "Adolescent Conduct Disorders: A New Way of Viewing Behavioral Acting Out." This conference emphasizes techniques from social learning, family therapy, and cognitive therapy, and features Gary Hill, director of clinical services at the Family Institute at Northwestern University.
Upon completion of the workshop, participants will better understand how to help the acting out child develop better coping skills; intervene to reduce acting out behavior; and assist parents in developing skills to create a more positive and deeper connection with their children.
The cost of the conference is $110 and includes continental breakfast, lunch, and handouts. Participants also may apply for continuing education credits.
For more information, contact the Alliance for Lifelong Learning at 847-635-1808.
