The meeting of the month we have an outside speaker.  Please go to http://www.dupageadd.org/ to see who is speaking.

Other weeks we do a "Check-In" where attendees discuss the recent challenges we have been facing, AND our successes.  This is usually done will all participants, but if someone needs additional time than the large group can accommodate, we can do a "Breakout Group".

We are always evolving as new people join us.  We hope to meet your needs, so don't be shy in telling us what your seeking from the group. 

Hope you can join us.  It's can actually be quite a blast when a bunch of us get together.

We also meet at a local restaurant afterwards.  Come on over!!

The West Suburban Adult Support Group is open to the public!  (childcare is not available.)
