Course Description: This course is equivalent to our 12-hour in-person group course and is most often required for persons who have been convicted of and/or placed on probation for an assaultive offense. It is also appropriate for anyone who would like assistance in reducing stress, controlling emotions, or reducing aggressive behavior. This program is designed to help participants understand why people use violence, discover how attitudes can override values, learn how to identify and control strong emotions, learn how to develop a plan to alter present behavior, learn to gain better self-control, learn to walk away from confrontations, establish goal-directed behavior patterns, and make a firm commitment never to repeat as a criminal offender, if applicable. The in-person group course is usually the best option for learning this material and is recommended. However, there are circumstances (location/distance, health, work schedule, transportation, etc.) when the Home Study version is appropriate. To take the Anger Management for Home Study course, you must meet the conditions outlined on the reverse side of the class schedule (available below).
