The Mental Health Action Group announces the beginning of a confidential support group for parents of children, adolescents, and young adults who are currently in a residential treatment program (eg. therapeutic wilderness, therapeutic boarding school, residential treatment center).  Parents of children who have been in treatment or who are thinking about placing their child in a treatment facility are also welcome.  The group will be facilitated (on a rotating basis) by a parent.  The purpose of the group is to reduce the isolation that many parents feel and to provide support to parents dealing with a child struggling with mental health, behavioral and/or drug and alcohol issues.
