Civic Center
At Community Christian Church there are a number of community programs that utilize our beautiful space and location. We embrace our neighbors, and we are happy that our facilities can meet a need in our area.
Anger Management
Description: The Stoppit! Program is a weekly, professionally facilitated, peer support group for individual men and women. Stoppit! provides a safe, non-shaming environment where members take ownership of their anger and needs to discover their wants.[less]
It is a ten-lesson curriculum developed over 35 years of experience that specifically confronts control behaviors and teaches decision-making skills and strategies for responding to anger. In a supportive and safe environment, members of the group share their responses to each lesson. They talk about past and present experiences and learn to cope with stress and discord. By sharing with others, participants learn valuable communication skills and strategies to enhance their relationships and lives. Through the use of Response Training(RT) and the Passive-Assertive Framework(PAF) (the Stoppit! tools), members learn to recognize signals, discover losses and wounds, and communicate wants. Through the group process, members identify new choices and alternative behavior strategies. Stoppit! groups are open ended. Members are welcome to continue meeting beyond the ten-week curriculum by identifying goals and focus for each cycle.
