New Jersey Self-Help Clearinghouse to Hold Free Workshop

By Bruce Stern

The New Jersey Self-Help Clearinghouse will hold a free workshop Friday June 27, 2008 from 12:30-3:30PM at the Brick Branch County Library in Brick, New Jersey. This workshop is designed for self-help support group leaders who are interested in learning new techniques on shared leadership, getting the most out of group discussions, and infusing a little “pizzazz” into their group. It is an opportunity to exchange ideas and tips with other self-help group leaders.

Preventing Burnout Through Shared Leadership and Shared Responsibility
Are you feeling burned out from all of your responsibilities as a group leader? Is it hard to get other group members to help out with running the group? Why is it so beneficial to develop a sense of “the groups’ group” for you, the group members, and the group as a whole? Learn successful techniques that you can use to recruit volunteers and get others involved in the group so you don’t have to do it alone. Not only will you be under less stress, but the other group members’ sense of “group ownership,” self-esteem, and empowerment will blossom.

This workshop is free; pre-registration is requested. To register, either call the Clearinghouse or send in the completed registration form to the Clearinghouse. For additional information on this or other workshops, please contact the New Jersey Self-Help Group Clearinghouse at 1-800-367-6274 or 973-989-1122.
