Each month, Connections for Independent Living hosts several peer support groups. These informal groups offer enrichment in physical and mental health, socialization, stress management, and disability education. All support groups are free of cost to Connections consumers.
Knowledgeable Connections staff members coordinate these voluntary groups, but it is the members who actively participate and guide the conversation. Participants offer support, teach valuable skills, and share useful information. Through active participation, consumers can overcome barriers, handle the stress of living with a disability, and gain awareness of resources that are helpful in maintaining personal independence through these interactions and tools.
Refer to our calendar as to which peer group will be in-person or hybrid.
Please join us.
This group offers information and support to individuals who have experienced a Brain Injury, stroke, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, or any other type of brain injury. Caregivers are welcome.
It meets the second Wednesday of each month from 2:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. at Connections’ Greeley office.
Connections Community Circle support group is an informal group for individuals who live with a disabling condition to socialize, create crafts, and discuss any topics they choose.
This group meets the last Wednesdays of the month, in-person only, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Many of our consumers may struggle with employment at any given time. Many of them who are living with disabilities are not aware of job opportunities available to them that would be accommodating to their needs. This support group offers small group training and practice to learn and apply professional skills to everyday life. This includes training in aptitude testing, professional development, interview skills, and resume preparation.
This group meets the first and third Wednesday of the month from 2:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. at Connections’ Greeley office.
