Safe People:

How to Find Relationships That Are Good for You and Avoid Those That Aren’t

Based on the book Safe People by Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend, this 12-week group will offer solid guidance for making safe choices in relationships, from friendships to romance. The group will help identify the nuturing people we all need in our lives, as well as ones we need to learn to avoid.

Safe People will help you recognize 20 traits of relationally untrustworthy people, discover what makes some people relationally unsafe, and how to avoid unhealthy entanglements. You’ll learn about things within yourself that jeopardize your relational security. And you’ll find out what to do and what not to do to develop a balanced, healthy approach to relationships.
