FAQ

Questions we hear a lot

My kid is already a teenager. Too late?+

Not at all. We tailor the second half of the session to the ages in the room.

Can both parents attend on one ticket?+

Yes, pricing is per household, not per person.

Who teaches the class?+

Every workshop is led by a licensed pediatrician with training in adolescent health, never a general presenter or volunteer.

What's your refund policy?+

Full refund up to 7 days before your session. After that, we'll credit you toward any future workshop.

Do you offer scholarships?+

Yes, we set aside 10% of every session for need-based scholarships. Just email hello@turningteen.com.
