Group members will be given ample opportunity to share their own successes and struggles, past and current. Members will also set weekly treatment goals with each other at the end of each meeting. Finally, members will offer support and guidance to group members as well as receive encouragement and inspiration from each other. Together, our mutual goals will be to:
