“Heart Skills® are needed regardless of your ethnicity, financial background or culture. The goal is to develop new patterns of thinking and behaving to strengthen relationships in all areas of life.”
Be Strong International’s mission is to provide holistic educational services and resources to youth and parents in broken families in order to develop and maintain Heart Skills through healthy relationship education.
The Heart Skills® framework offers a comprehensive approach to nurturing and growing healthy relationships. Each element is carefully designed to help individuals foster deeper connections, improve communication, and cultivate trust in all areas of their lives.
These skills are essential not only for strengthening your relationships but also for enhancing your daily interactions with colleagues, friends, and community members. We provide resources and tools in the Heart Skills® Toolbox to help you apply these skills in your personal and professional life, making your connections more meaningful and enduring.
Be Strong International currently offers Heart Skills training to youth, parents, and married couples looking to improve their interpersonal and intrapersonal relationships. To learn more about Heart Skills training services offered near you, they can all be found through our programs.
