The program is wide-ranging and encompasses a variety of topics to help participants develop increased self-awareness to enhance their relationships. Participants explore their childhood, adolescent, and adult trauma; relational struggles, particularly issues of healthy attachment; and other issues that male-identified individuals often experience.
