Hudson "Exploring U" Features Family Communication

APRIL 15, 2005--The University of Wisconsin-River Falls College of Outreach and Graduate Studies will host a program on family communication as part of its Exploring U series on April 27 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Hudson Hospital Conference Center located at 405 Stageline Road.

The series is an ongoing effort to bring resources to parents, grandparents and expectant parents in the Hudson area and to increase awareness of programs available at UW-RF.

UW-RF professor of speech communication and theatre arts Barbara Werner will present "Communication, Conflict and Relational Type." Conflict in relationships is neither good nor bad; it is a fact, says Werner.

Werner will explain how to manage conflict and understand how different relationship types communicate. During this interactive presentation Werner will discuss relationship types and show how differences in types affect the communication and conflict that is likely to arise within families and between adults.

All sessions are free and open to the public. Reservations are encouraged but not required. For reservations, call 715/425-3256 or email the office of outreach and graduate studies at outreach@uwrf.edu.
