NLCMH to Host New Beginnings Focus Group

Northern Lakes Community Mental Health and New Beginnings Drop-In Center are partnering to host a focus group to gain community input about the New Beginnings Drop-In Center. The focus group will be held on Thursday, December 12, from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., at the Northern Lakes Community Mental Health office, 2715 South Townline Road, Houghton Lake.

New Beginnings is a local non-profit organization, which offers a safe, supportive haven within the community for people who have experienced mental/emotional issues. It is a place to go and experience life, make friends, socialize, go on outings, be accepted, and help each other. Individuals do not need to be currently receiving mental health services in order to attend New Beginnings Drop-In Center. New Beginnings is located at 404 West Houghton Lake Road in Prudenville, between Korbinski’s Marine and Bart’s Fruit Market, on the shore of Houghton Lake.

The focus group will be facilitated by Northern Lakes Community Mental Health Certified Peer Support Specialists.

This is a free and open meeting for anyone in the community.
