November 2020

NCC NEWS AND UPDATES

We had an exciting October with new programs for warriors and families including warrior-led workshops, art and music therapy sessions, and our first Independence Program Open Mic event. We will continue to offer sessions throughout the next two months – please encourage your warriors to attend! CSS are welcome to join in as part of their sessions with warriors or incorporate recordings of these events into sessions.

As a reminder, we also have recordings of our Virtual CSS webinar series on our website, including the last two ‘Virtual CSS Sessions reboot’ where CSS offered suggestions for adding energy and new ideas into virtual sessions. Recordings can be found: https://neurocc.com/virtual-services/ (Password: Virtu@lServ1ces!)

We look forward to sharing resources and trainings with you each month. If you have a resource that may be beneficial to all of our agencies, please contact Jenny Abramson at Jabramson@neurocc.com.
