Programs & Services / Family Life Education

We want to help families live and love together in healthy ways. See if one or more of these appeal to you:

SAFEline
If you’re dealing with a difficult family or life issue, call SAFEline for a time-limited phone consultation. Call 760/325-4088 and ask for Dr. Helene Pine, Ph.D. and marriage and family therapist.

Family Wellness Workshops
Through our “Survival Skills for Healthy Families,” all family members – Mom, Dad, children, grandparents and others – learn skills that strengthen and promote healthy family patterns.

Journal Writing Workshops
Whether you’re a new or experienced journal writer, these workshops can help you bring forth answers to life questions, or create healing, comfort or a sense of well being. Workshops are a private and personal experience within a group setting that includes writing exercises with specific themes.

"LE" Lunch Bunch
LE, or Life Enhancement meetings are free informal, monthly lunchtime discussion groups. Dr. Helene Pine leads discussions on a wide variety of topics that can improve your quality of life – such as enjoying retirement, developing new interests, or caring for others. Bring a brown-bag lunch and enjoy!

Lunchtime Talks
Bring a bag lunch and a colleague to enjoy these informal, monthly discussions for professionals who want to improve their working and personal lives.

Speakers Bureau
Speakers are available to civic clubs, service clubs, sisterhoods, Elderhostels, schools and others. Entertaining, knowledgeable JFS speakers offer topics that are relevant to each group’s interests.

Check our calendar for workshops or the free lunchtime meetings.
