❤ Invitation to Change for NYS Parents and Caregivers! ❤
Inspired Possibility is honored to partner with the CMC: Foundation for Change
with a grant from the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation to present a free
Invitation to Change Group for parents from the following NY regions:
Rochester/Finger Lakes, Western NY, Central NY, Southern Tier, Capital Region, and North Country.
To learn more about the Invitation to Change, please join our free informational call
The vast majority of families affected by substance use navigate their pain alone, without access to strategies
that could help them support their loved ones and themselves—even though these strategies exist!
The Invitation to Change (ITC) approach is a holistic helping framework based in science and kindness,
designed for the families of people struggling with substance use.
It offers a set of down to earth, compassionate tools for creating an environment where change is more likely to happen,
while also sustaining and caring for yourself along the way.
❤️ Invitation to Change Virtual Group for NY Parents and Caregivers
15 weeks: Next group begins October 2024
If you are a parent or caregiver who has a child struggling with substance or alcohol use,
and you'd like to learn a compassionate, effective approach to take care of yourself
while strengthening your relationship
and working together toward recovery, please join us.
