Wednesday, February 22, 2012

A 10-week free educational class will be held next month in Franklin on recovery and wellness for anyone experiencing a mental disorder.  

The peer-to-peer program is led by mentors (peers) who themselves are in recovery from mental illness and who can share their unique coping strategies to others pursuing recovery. The program was developed by the National Alliance of Mental Illness and has been taught to thousands throughout the nation. The class will be offered in Franklin every Tuesday from 6:30-8:30 p.m. beginning March 13.  

Class size is limited and pre-registration is required.

Call Hank 828.342.4789 or Paul 828.524.9133.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
