What is New Gens, You Ask?

The Rise Recovery New Gens Group is dedicated to our youngest, most vulnerable family members. The New Gens Group offers support to siblings or children (aged 9-17) of those experiencing substance use issues. Substance misuse can pervade a family and siblings or children of those using run a high risk of using themselves. They are often overlooked and at a much higher risk of substance use issues in the future. Prevention skills building and support are necessary components to whole-family healing. Currently, New Gens meetings are held on Thursday at the Asbury location at 7:30 pm in conjunction with our Family and Older Group meetings. Individual sessions are also available. Rise Recovery is focused on the recovery of the whole family, as such, it is required that New Gens parents be members of our Family or Older Group. Please email Sarah or give her a call at 210.227.2634, with any questions regarding New Gens.

A Cancellation...
