Peer Support for Adult Children Coming from Alcoholic or Dysfunctional Homes -
Details
At this meeting we will be reading from Chapter 2 of The Emotionally Absent Mother by Jasmin Lee Cori.
**ACA is a peer-support group for those people who are healing from the effects of being brought up in an alcoholic or dysfunctional household. This can include neglect, mental illness and outright abuse. A few family types have been identified here: https://adultchildren.org/newcomer-family-types/**
We can meet in room 004 in the basement. Enter from the handicap ramp and take the stairs or elevator to the basement level. But if it gets stuffy in there we can also use the library that has an AC. We can decide in the moment.
Note that each week we will be reading from texts that fall outside the formally published texts from ACA.
The Power of the Meeting
At the heart of ACA is our commitment to meeting with one another. We understand that recovery cannot happen in isolation. By coming together, we:
- Learn and grow using inspiring literature
- Practice new behaviors leading to happier, more functional lives
- Develop and hone essential relationship skills
- Find safe environments to work through lifelong issues
- Heal through connection with others who share similar experiences
