A COMMUNITY-FIRST APPROACHConnection without
Connection without
pressure to become a patient.
The concept is open to community members, whether or not they receive clinical care at BHS. Group interest is separate from requesting treatment.
The launch plan proposes free or low-cost meetings. Final fees and participation rules must be confirmed by the office. No organizational partnership or facilitator certification is implied by this preview.
Are these therapy groups?
No. The planned format is facilitated peer support. It does not provide diagnosis, treatment, or emergency care.
Do I have to share my personal story?
Participation expectations and group agreements will be explained by the facilitator. Ask the office how the group will operate before attending.
Will group participants be photographed?
The launch plan calls for no participant photos in marketing. Final consent and privacy practices must be confirmed before sessions begin.
Are conversations guaranteed to stay private?
Group agreements can set expectations, but participant confidentiality cannot be absolutely guaranteed. Ask about the program’s privacy rules before sharing personal information.
