Another Way…Choosing to Change: Participant's Handbook - Women's Edition, 26 Week Curriculum is a facilitator-led, strengths-based, solution-focused program designed for women who use force in their intimate partner relationships. This edition is specifically tailored to support a 26- to 30-week curriculum.

The handbook helps to guide women toward healthy self-reflection and increased personal resiliency, while they explore safe and nonviolent relationship responses. It educates participants on what constitutes abusive behaviours, encourages introspection, promotes personal responsibility for abusive behaviours, and teaches nonviolent conflict resolution.

The handbook progresses in tandem with the 26-week facilitator guide, providing women with weekly interventions and actionable goals. Coping skills, spiritual and emotional healing, relationship management, parenting, socialization, recovery from trauma, mindfulness and relaxation, and personal growth, among a number of other topics, are explored in a group setting, allowing for meaningful discussion and support.

Another Way…Choosing to Change is an exemplary curriculum to help women develop deeper connection, cultivate opportunities to foster healthy interdependence in their relationships, and embrace nonviolent solutions to resolve conflict.
