The Focus Youth Conference is a personal development course on values, goal-setting, communications and decisions that generate positive consequences.
The seminar costs $450, which includes lodging and meals. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis. For information, contact McCaffrey at P.O. Box 4101, Laguna Beach, Calif., 92652, or call (714) 497-6616.
“Step Into the Future,” a three-day self-esteem program for teen-agers presented by the nonprofit Archer Foundation, will be held June 14 through 16 at the Church of Religious Science in Fullerton.
The program offers teens a hands-on, practical approach to decision-making. Teens will learn how to say no and mean it, say yes and keep their promises, determine their own consequences and take responsibility for their choices.
Tuition is $100, and enrollment is under way. For brochures and registration forms, call Claudia Finklea at (714) 963-5262.
