Meet James and James Jr.
They were recent June 2024 graduates of our Celebrating Families! program at our WestCare California operations. During this 12-week family-inclusive program, they always arrived with a positive attitude and were ready to learn the night’s class topic.
As a single parent, James continues to work on himself to be a better father for James Jr., and both actively participated in all the sessions. When asked what the most important things he learned was, he said: “Understanding the boundaries of others and learning to work together as a family.”
He shared his son loved the groups and always talked about every session on their way home, especially when they learned about the impacts of smoking and how it hurts the body and lungs. It drove home the understanding of how important it is to keep our bodies healthy.
James continued to state: “I learned to be patient and kind to myself. I especially must stop and think things through. I use the calming techniques I learned and remain positive. My group leaders understood my feelings and life experiences and I gained knowledge of things that i can use at home to be a better father.”
Join us in congratulating James and James Jr. We wish them the very best!
