To MenHealing Weekends of Recovery Alumni, Friends, and Supporters
INVITATION TO WOR ALUMNI
MenHealing will be offering Peer Leader training sessions for alumni of Weekends of Recovery. The training course is designed to provide guidance and skills on how to lead an online or in-person peer group. The training is open to all alumni, including those who were trained as part of the Connect Study.
The trainings will be conducted on two Saturdays: September 23rd and 30th starting at 8am Pacific / 9am Mountain / 10am Central / 11am Eastern, and will last for 3 hours each.
Being a Peer Leader for support groups is an excellent way to help others find support. Many current peer leaders have said they gain as much by facilitating the groups as the participants do.
If you are interested, please send email to Adam Frost (Support Groups Manager) at adamfrost@menhealing.org with your name, time zone, and phone number.
