Do You Have a Loved One with a Mental Illness?

English speaking caregivers across Quebec who are experiencing difficulty coping with the mental illness of a loved one are invited to participate in support groups over the telephone. Self-help support groups are non-judgmental, safe and confidential forums where people come together to deal with shared concerns and problems. Our groups are especially designed to reach caregivers living in regions where English services are not readily available, and to help you cope when a loved one has a mental illness. A trained facilitator provides any needed assistance.

“You alone can do it – but you can’t do it alone” is the central thrust behind self-help support groups. Join us; share, listen, and strengthen your coping skills.

Group will be held Wednesday evening:

March 17, 2010, 7:00 to 8:15 pm
