Hello Everyone, I am reaching out on behalf of Erin Wallace. She has some new StayWell programming coming up. Please reach out to Erin at brightleafllc@gmail.com<mailto:brightleafllc@gmail.com> for program information, marketing blurbs, and social media graphics. Here is the program information she shared with me. She has graphics too, but I believe attachments do not work well on the listserv: Family support groups - Every Monday, starting September 6 Parents, are you feeling anxious about your family's safety as COVID-19 keeps spreading?
