Planning for the future:

Emotional
Parenthood
Communication:
Obtaining Information
Seeking Support
Learning to Talk and Listen to Each Other
Coping 101
Please contact Katherine Sherry, LCSW HD Reach Clinical Program Manager at ksherry@hdreach.org to register. We need a minimum or 4 couples to register for this event to take place. A zoom link will be sent to you the week before the retreat. While we hope all participants would feel comfortable using their cameras we realize some individuals would prefer to remain anonymous. We want to honor that wish but offer reassurance that the importance of confidentiality will be discussed.
