Men’s Sober Support Group starts in March


Are you interested in examining a sober lifestyle (sober curious)? Are you starting to question your relationship with alcohol? Or do you just need some support to maintain a commitment to sobriety? If so, you might be interested in joining a men’s sober support group that will meet every Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. at The Hub (senior center).

The first meeting will be held March 7. Coffee, tea and popcorn will be provided.

What will happen?

Every evening there will be a short presentation, followed by small group discussion. No long lectures, just great discussion and encouragement. The goal is to allow folks to share their personal journey toward sobriety. Successful practices will be discussed that have helped folks in the sober journey. This will be done in a grace filled atmosphere, hopefully with some humor!

Up to date information will be shared on the benefits of sobriety and how to maintain sobriety. Literature, websites and other resources will be available.

Interested? Call The Hub at 218-387-2660.

Guidelines:

This group will follow the general rule of confidentiality. Information stays with the group unless individuals give permission to share publicly.

There is NO requirement to talk. We welcome silence.

People who come to the meeting while drinking (using), will be asked to remain silent.

This is NOT a group therapy session. Those who want or need deeper therapy or medical care will be given resources.

While sharing and tough questions may be discussed with possible solutions offered. This will NOT be a time to proclaim a single approach or doctrine of sobriety.
