The statistical population of this study was 200 inactive and poorly cared for girls aged 12-18 living in Isfahan boarding schools. Coincidentally, 30 people were divided into two groups of 15 people tested and controlled. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics of repeated measurement analysis of variance were used to evaluate the research hypotheses. The results showed that the difference between the meanings of the two experimental and control groups in the post-test stage and the follow-up with the control of the pre-test stage scores in the coping styles was significant. And the quality of life training course has increased the use of problem-oriented style and reduced the style of emotion-oriented among orphaned and homeless girls (p <0.01).
