Our Monthly Group (based on the concepts of William Glasser)

Next Thursday, Jan 21, at 6 pm we will be holding our monthly "Glasser Group" here at the Mid Town Family Resource Center. These "rolling" groups based on the work of William Glasser, are a free-form offering to the community. We have, at times, focused on trying to make it be a support group effort for foster parents and parents of youth in our various programs, and/or a group for young people who we think would benefit (within our programs, and in the general community), and sometimes many things in between. We have 6 people, or 20 people, some (always!) new people, and some that have attended a number of the sessions. So its always a little challenging to prepare the theme of the month!!!! We always "keep it simple" with one theme focused on- and TRY very hard to make it participatory- drawing people out to share their thoughts and reactions to the concepts presented. We welcome anyone (as you could hopefully tell!) and are always open to suggestions to make it more meaningful and useful in people's daily lives.
