Catholic Charities Child Care Program recently launched a Problem Solvers Club in an effort to create a positive peer environment that values constructive problem solving as it relates to resolving conflicts. As part of the Social Emotional Activities component of the aftercare program, the goals of the club are to learn how to manage anger, learn how to solve your own problems and learn how to help others solve their problems.
