Thursday Night Family Support Group
We are a group of clinical staff and family partners who offer time each week to provide support, guidance, and a safe place to share your stories, connect with others who are having similar experiences, and provide education and information that may be helpful as you navigate the complexities of behavioral health challenges. Starting on June 18, 2020, we have moved our groups to zoom - check the link above for more details. Every Thursday from 7:00 to 8:30 pm.
Thriving together Support Group
This group was created to be a place where youth can connect with each other and talk about what they are going through. Youth need to be able to have an outlet to express themselves more now than ever. The group meets every Tuesday at 2pm on the Bright Heart Health platform. The group is meant to serve BHRS participants but given the need it has opened to all youth between the ages of 16-26. Some of the topics in the group include but are not limited to, wellness strategies, grounding techniques, positive reflections, peer advocacy, goal planning, and more. The group is structured and facilitated by a peer with lived experience.
Looking for Your Virtual Appointment - Click to Join - Participants can click the link any Tuesday at 2pm and will be greeted by a navigator. Ask to join the “thriving together youth support group” and a greeter will direct you!
