Family Mondays at CMC:FFC
We are so excited to announce that Dr. Nicole Kosanke will be running an ongoing monthly drop-in series for family members of those struggling with problematic substance use at CMC:Foundation for Change. Join us every first Monday of the month for a series of talks which will include discussion of the core elements that research and experience have shown can most effectively influence healthy behavior change in others with a special focus on the topic of the night. Questions and participation is encouraged! There are also several EXTRA Family Mondays added into the mix to allow for further discussion and consultation! See below for the extra dates in March, July and November – the cost is the same for all hour-length meetings. Series hosted via Zoom.
Since these are drop in, feel free to join us for just one meeting, or sign up for the whole series. Registration closes 24 hours before each session.
