Have a Safe Holiday!

We will be observing the holidays and will not be holding Connections Peer Support Group on the first week of January as it falls on New Years Day. We will be starting back up with various events on January 3, 2014 and kicking the new year off with the Regional State Budget Hearing for the Governor's proposed budget for 2014.

Also, in the latter part of January, we will be holding an Open House for the kick off of a youth/teen activity group for youth/teens with mental illness. Please see the events page for information regarding that.

We still have spots open for Peer to Peer classes. It starts January 27, 2014. Please call (276) 669-5840 and ask for Ashley, if interested. The participant must have a mental illness.

We hope you have a safe holiday season! See you in 2014!
