This is a way to earn a “partial”, you may reach out to the counciler to complete as needed. Requirements #4 & #5 involve physical projects to be done at home/with family. I can brainstorm ideas with the group but they may need more than 1 week to be Requirement #3: the group can start this prior to the session or we can discuss chore ideas and they can complete the chore chart at home. Either way, it’s a 90 day chore chart so they wouldn’t be able to complete it by the end of the summer session. |
