On-site and Online groups of varying lengths and formats are offered through Well-Being Services. Every attempt is made to provide an environment where participants can feel safe and welcome. The two main types of groups are Drop-In and Closed. Each format provides unique benefits. To learn more about the differences between a Drop-In and Closed group format click [here].
Group materials are provided if/when necessary to enhance the experience. Generally speaking, Drop-In groups are ongoing at a set time and day each week. Closed groups, on the other hand are time specific. They begin on a certain date/day and last for a limited time. This is the case for both on-site and online meetings. Additionally, closed groups contain a limited number or participants, which normally ranges from 5 at a minimum to 10 at a maximum. Closed groups hosted on this site are either 4, 6, or 8 weeks depending on the topic. To view calendar of groups and other events click [here]
