The FREND group is a national leader in behavior modification and self-improvement, with a "Service Grant" program that enjoys one of the highest success rates.

Our mission:

To motivate and educate people, free from any professional fees, on how to take responsibility for their own health by adopting and maintaining a healthier lifestyle, mentally, physically and emotionally.

While our goal is to help the whole person, we focus on three major areas of concern facing the majority of people today, chronic stress, excess weight and addictive behavior such as smoking, alcohol and drugs.

Helping organizations and the community.

Since 1994, our ground-breaking seminar/clinics have helped thousands of employees of government agencies and major corporations, law enforcement, firefighters, educational institutions and health organizations.

We also sponsor and conduct hundreds of free community-wide clinics across America, with support from newspapers who donate advertising space and community organizations who donate conference facilities.

Together, we help people in need improve the quality of their life, who otherwise may not have the resources.

To fully understand how this unique program has improved the lives of so many people after attending just one two-hour session, please review this website in its entirety.

Proactive vs Reactive

Prevention is the answer! Motivating people to take responsibility for their own health and educating them on how to adopt and maintain a healthier lifestyle, not only results in numerous personal benefits, it also benefits everyone they are associated with, including family, friends, and fellow workers.

Organizations also benefit from less absenteeism, fewer health related claims resulting in reduced health care costs.

Our program is not just inspirational, it is also a fascinating adventure into the psychology of "Cause and Effect".

It explains how and why people make the conscious and subconscious decisions they do and then experience the negative unintended consequences of those decisions, such as stress, excess weight, addictive behavior and much more.

Since we do not live in a vacuum, an unhealthy lifestyle can also harm others within that person's sphere of influence, such as family, friends and co-workers.

Proven benefits of this program.

The bottom line is simple! The "Personal Testimonials" and "Organization Endorsements" and their complete unedited letters included here, say it all.

Instituting a similar program, "The Safeway Corporation reduced their health care costs the very first year by 11%, a savings of one hundred and ten million dollars ($110,000,000)." - San Francisco Chronicle February 11, 2007

For the Doubting Thomas's, there is an old Chinese proverb. "The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it."

Is your organization's budget tight?

Our population is becoming unhealthier, and our national leading seminar/clnic helps reverse this trend.

Awarding this valuable Service Grant is our way of contributing our professional resources to help organizations save money while helping their people live a positive healthier life!

First, it inspires and educates employees on how to adopt and maintain a healthier lifestyle. This results in a happier healthier workforce, less downtime, and increased production. In turn organizations can reduce their health care costs.

A voice of authority speaks.

Frank Ricci III, Ph.D, founder of The FREND Group Clinics, speaks with authority regarding addictive behavior and its harmful effect on others. He nearly lost his life after contracting Cancer from second-hand smoke.

After conquering this deadly disease, he dedicated his life to helping others avoid the potential fatal consequences of addiction to unhealthy substances.

They are fascinated on how he went from growing up in a ghetto, to working side-by-side with some of the most famous people in the world. To how he conguered Cancer by utilizing the cutting-edge science behind his presentation, supported by research at leading institutions such as UCLA, Harvard, Stanford, John Hopkins and Mayo Clinic.

"Between mind, heart, and emotion, lies intuitive insight and a silent wisdom that guides every one of us, if we take the time to listen to ourselves and those with knowledge."

Proven effective program.
