Imagine living in a world of dragons, elves, orcs and magic, where you are tasked with saving all that you know as home from unknown forces of wrongdoing. This is the world of Dungeons and Dragons, where players roleplay as fantasy characters to protect this mystical realm. Families Forward has adapted the game for clients to develop social skills, such as communication, impulse control, collaboration, frustration management, and nonviolent resolutions to challenging problems. Come learn about the game and the adjustments made to teach social skills and coping strategies to serve youth in the mental health field.
