SUMMARY:Family Support "All In" #5: Moving on from Shame
DESCRIPTION:Moving on from the Shame \nIn order for us to let go of shame\, we must first truly understand what this means for each of us. Raising a child or having a family member struggle with a mental health challenge or addiction is incredibly concerning and often all-consuming. Although Shame should never follow a mental health challenge/addiction it typically does. Through this workshop\, we will support you to look at how that word shows up in your world and how working to remove that narrative\, can be a game changer in your own mental health story. \n*This workshop is part of a six-week workshop series based on the work of Robyn Priest Live Your Truth’s ALL IN Peer Support for Families\, led by Krasman Centre’s Family Peer Supporters.  \nDates: September 3\, September 17\, October 1\, October 15\, October 29\, November 12\, 2025\nTime: 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm\nWhere: Online via Zoom or phone \nRegister Online using the online registration form. \nContact Info: Connie Reck\, Family Peer Supporter\nPhone: (416) 230-3639  Email: familysupport@krasmancentre.com
