Wednesdays 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM

The Social Prescribing Group is designed for clients who are part of the Social Prescribing Program. The group focuses on creating a space where detailed check-in can occur in a group setting to foster integrated support and connection. Group members will be encouraged to engage in a group setting and participate in socialization activities, problem-solving and support of other group members.

In addition, the group will include discussion on various topics (e.g., anxiety, medication, stress, etc) and therapeutic games that invoke growth opportunities for clients. Projects or tasks (e.g., checking-in with other group members) may also be assigned to group members to foster connections outside the group setting. On occasion group activities will be provided by Project Connection to help with members’ various socialization goals.
