The Talk: Getting Home

  • No referral needed
  • Free

What it costs

Free

One payment. Yours permanently.

Or free if

  • You are under eighteen
  • Anybody referred you
  • You cannot pay and you tell us

Three editions

One course, written three times.

The young person, the adult raising them, and whoever runs the room. They are not the same book. The parent sessions are built to be done alongside the lessons, not instead of them.

Youth and young adults

12 lessons

Twelve lessons. What is actually happening, how you are read, the first ten seconds, what the law says and what it costs to use it, five moments, and after.

Parents and the adults raising them

5 lessons

Five sessions. Before you say anything, how your child is seen, what to say and when, the law in your house, and being the one they tell.

Facilitators

The guide, the lesson notes, the safety and disclosure protocol, and the fidelity rules. Comes with certification, because the guide on its own is not enough to run this well.

Some people do not pay for this

Referred by a court, an officer, a school or a facility
It costs you nothing, and that is applied from the referral itself rather than claimed.
Under eighteen
The same, worked out from the date of birth on the record. This course is about getting home from a traffic stop and we are not going to invoice a child for it.
The first lesson, to everybody
It is the numbers and the names, and it is the lesson that says this course cannot make anybody safe. That one is not going behind a payment.
The immigration section, to everybody, in both languages
Never sold, to anyone. It is handed out separately from the course and carries its own attorney review.

Every legal statement in this course carries a state, because the law is genuinely different in Ohio than it is in Florida. Attorney-verified state pages exist so far for: Florida. Everywhere else, the course shows the federal baseline and says out loud that it is doing so.
