OUR MISSION:
Life Skills International and its affiliates
are a 501c(3) not for profit educational organization
that is dedicated to giving individuals the information
and support necessary to break free from destructive
and malignant behavior patterns. With the client,
we uncover the root causes of their behavior and assist
in developing basic character traits that will establish
healthy foundations for living and loving.
OUR PURPOSE STATEMENT:
Our purpose is to meet the deep needs of individuals
and families in our community. These needs include
spiritual, social, and psychological dimensions.
INDIVIDUALS:
As the individual learns the reasons behind certain
behaviors, self-esteem will grow. Abusive behavior
is recognized and the client, with the help of a trained
facilitator, develops a plan to control actions. Victims
will learn that they can say "No" to abuse. They will learn that since
they have value, they can set healthy boundaries in
their relationships. They will develop a protection
plan during class which will provide options and a
course of action if she needs to escape.
FAMILIES:
As the individual heals, they will break the cycle
of generational dysfunction. They will take what they
have learned to their families and relationships.
COMMUNITY:
New dimension and hope for the hurting carries into
the community as those who have been restored carry
the hope to others. The Life Skills Center is recognized
as a lighthouse that offers hope and help to all that
come for help.
