Diamond Ranch Academy sponsors a two day parent seminar once every six months. These seminars are designed to be an educational, social, and therapeutic experience. Parents and students attend workshops which teach communication skills, parenting skills, and other pertinent topics intended to strengthen families and to prepare for the time when the family will be reunited.
The seminars also provide an opportunity to participate in face to face family therapy. These therapy sessions allow families to work on resolving some of the challenges they faced prior to becoming a part of our program.
The opportunity to see each other and have some social interaction is an important part of the parent seminars. Both student and parent have this time to practice the interaction and communication skills being taught in the program and, where needed, restore friendly relations.
