Education departments in churches offer a class as an elective in their Sunday school program. Counseling agencies and clinics offer a class as a community service. Counselors and therapists provide the class to parents who have been mandated by judges and courts to attend a parenting class. There are many possibilities for teaching PWR Classes. As the class nears its end, the teacher begins to announce the support group.
Churches often use the above method for starting a group.
They change the meeting time to one that is most agreeable to the schedules of those who choose to participate. Another unique approach is to offer both a class and a support group from the beginning. The new venture is publicized as both a class and a support group. The first hour is for the class. Then there's a break for refreshments and fellowship.
