Anger is a human emotion which, in and of itself, is neither good nor bad. In fact there are times when anger is an appropriate response to a situation. However, anger becomes a problem when it lasts too long, becomes too intense, or in any number of ways seems to take control over our lives. MaineStay's adult anger management program is a five-week educational group designed to help individuals gain control over their anger. The program is largely based on cognitive-behavioral skills to help participants understand their anger and make behavior changes geared toward effectively managing their anger.

The cost for this program is $40 for Maine Township residents. Participants must be 19 years of age or older. For more information or to enroll, please contact Andy Young at 847-297-2510 x273 or by email at .
