Our Peer Support Group is currently on hiatus while we look for along term facilitator.
​
If you attended the group and have feedback or are interested in attending and have thoughts to share, we'd love to hear from you. Feel free to call or text Julia at 860-309-3597, or email info@outinthecorner.org
