Community Conversations: Tough Talks
June 16, 2022
The Aging and Disability Resource Center of Southwest Wisconsin will be hosting a monthly virtual presentation/discussion tackling topics to help learn how to work on many tasks that include legal issues, financial issues, health issues, mental health issues and emotional issues; sometimes all of those at once.
Living with a disability, living in an aging body, living with mental health struggles: all require Tough Talks. Tough Talks are not easy, but they are necessary.
Roger Reynolds grew up on a farm in Crawford County, WI, and has lived in southwestern Wisconsin most of his life. Roger lives with Civilian PTSD, depression and anxiety. He is a Mental Health Peer Leader and has participated in, designed and led peer-led Mental Health support groups and skills groups.
Our second in the series will be on Tuesday, June 21, 2022, at 11:00 a.m., via ZOOM. To register you can call (608) 328-9610 or email dhay-skattum@gchsd.org.
Session Topic:
