Classes

Currently, Clover Family Services is only offering Teen Social Classes. Teen Social classes are offered on two levels.

Level One: Conversation Skills

Level Two: Friendship Skills

Each level consists of 12 weekly sessions at our Janesville Mental Health Offices location with qualified facilitators.  We use the Model Me® curriculum. Every class, activities, practice, and trackers are sent home with participants for parents and families to practice in between sessions.  Parent/family participation is an important aspect of successful completion of the program and is required in order for the participant to earn a Certificate of Completion.  We ask families to be certain they are able to support their child before enrolling them in the classes.  A final, individual evaluation is scheduled after completion of the 12 course sequence to determine successful completion and to earn the certificate.

In Level One, participants will engage in social lessons and hands-on activities to build basic understanding and conversation skills.  If facilitator suspects that a participant may need to retake the course, they will outreach the family. They will either suggest that the participant repeat Level One to better hone in on the content, or graduate the participant to Level 2 if the participant and family wishes to do so. Successful completion of Level 1 and passing the final evaluation will result in a Certificate of Completion for each participant.

In Level Two, participants will expand on the social classes and hands-on activities from Level One, and will add-in friendship skills.  If the facilitator suspects that participants will not successfully complete Level Two, the facilitator will schedule to meet with the participant and parents to discuss possible repeat of Level Two, or referral options to additional programming (either with Clover or with another community agency).
