When your registration and payment are submitted, you’ll receive a payment confirmation email. Within one business day, you’ll get a separate email from the Bethesda Workshops team with further information and instructions about the workshop paperwork.
The gender-specific workshop is for teens ages 15-18-year-olds who are still in high school or have just graduated. It’s a FAMILY program, not one just for the teens themselves. Whoever is identified as the teen’s parents (whether parents or step-parents – those who have primary residential and legal responsibility for the teen) is REQUIRED to attend.
The program is a GROUP process where multiple families attend at the same time (normally four to six families). The participants move back and forth between brief educational segments, activities, and group settings. Some of the groups will be separate gatherings of the teens and the parents. Other groups will be family therapy (teens and parents together) in a multi-family group setting.
There is no arriving late, ending early, or missing any part of the workshop during its scheduled hours.
