The Adult Life Skills programme is a comprehensive behaviour change approach that concentrates on the development of core skills needed for people to function effectively in society, establish patterns of pro-social behaviour and advance positive healthy lifestyle in general.

This programme is suited to adults (high, medium and low-risk) who find themselves in conflict with pro-societal values and laws.

The Adult Life skills programme has elements of social learning, character building, social- and personal skills training and cognitive behavioural therapy. It covers 10 topics, delivered over 1½ to 2 hours per session. Group sessions for ten to 15 participants are held twice a week and the entire programme is delivered over a period of 5 to 6 weeks.

The Adult Life Skills programme prevent the development of risky behaviours into established patterns of anti-social and offending behaviour while advancing positive healthy lifestyles, by:

• Increased self-awareness and strength of character
• Developing individuals’ ability to adjust and cope in changing life situations
• Building core traits and value systems that support well-being, psychological adjustment, and good mental health
