RESOLVE: Adult Anger Management and Emotion Regulation Program

This fee for service program originated from the New Leaf Program developed by JHS-Windsor-Essex. Program fees are based on a sliding scale. The program has been offered for more than 15 years to adult males and more recently to young persons (age 16+ years). The target groups are males, ages 22 and up for the adult program, and for youth, 16 to 21. The program teaches participants self-regulation and self-management skills that allow them to reduce the intensity, frequency and duration of their anger and subsequently, ends their patterns of aggression.
Offered on-site in all of Peel, Halton and Dufferin locations, the program has a Case Management component and consists of 12 group sessions with 1 to 3 pre-group meetings for intake and assessment purposes. The program includes a follow-up component. Participants must complete all sessions in order to receive a certificate of completion. Eligibility is based on the outcome of an intake assessment. Participation is voluntary, although most are seeking a program based on a required outstanding sanction (court, workplace or medical recommendation) that requires that a program be completed. Funding for this program may be provided in part by the United Way, by the user fees charged or through Ontario Works.
