Ashamed:

Addiction is an illness that consumes and destroys lives. Yet, we are still existing in a blame the victim society and far too many people are fighting this battle in secret. In our continuing effort to keep the conversation about mental health going, the LGs Circle and partners are delighted to present Joseph Skrajewski (MA, MFTI), the Director of Medical Education Programs and Initiatives at the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, California.

A Conversation About Addiction and Stigma

Joseph will discuss the realities (and misconceptions) about addiction with insight and empathy, which come from his years of professional service in the field, but also from his own past struggles with addiction. The evening is FREE to everyone and will include a panel discussion with local experts and people with lived experience, moderated by Gord Gilles (global calgary).

TICKETS ARE FREE BUT MUST BE RESERVED ONLINE. FOR MORE INFO: www.lgcirclealberta.ca
