Programs
Group programs to help the whole family get on the same page.
GameAware Programs are designed to empower families to find the sweet spot where we balance engagement in real life with enjoying video games as a hobby. We do this by teaching sustainable, intelligent gaming strategies and building resilience within your family. All group programs include full membership access to the online resource.
