Content, materials, and guidance
Complete groups.
Facilitator support built in.
GroupReady doesn’t just give you the group. It helps you lead it. The session and participant materials are already built. You can see what the lesson is trying to do, how to explain it, and where to take the conversation next.
GroupReady’s original curriculum is grounded in evidence-based behavioral-health practice. The complete curriculum has undergone independent clinical review.
The examples and activities give participants something recognizable to work with. The guide helps you explore their responses and connect the discussion back to the lesson.
Follow a group from preparation to closeFacilitator Mode
When group starts,
know what to do next.
Open Start the Group to set the tone, ask an opening question, and introduce the focus. Then follow the guided sections through to a structured Closing.
- Say
- Explain the idea and why it matters.
- Do
- Guide the activity, one step at a time.
- Ask
- Invite people to reflect on the idea.

More Guidance explains what a step is working toward, why it matters, and what to listen for. It offers another way to ask and helps you connect responses to the lesson.

See how lessons are built.
