"Codependency" will be presented on January 22, 2008; 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm, by Ronald E. Harrison, SW; Chemical Dependency Therapist. This presentation will discuss the symptoms and progression of codependency and describe recovery from codependency.

All Education Series programs are presented in the St. Joseph Mercy Hospital Education Center auditorium, 5305 Elliott Drive, Ypsilanti. All programs are free and open to all; presentations are intended to have broad appeal and are geared toward a diverse audience. No registration is required. Each workshop is approved by the Michigan Certification Board for Addiction Professionals (MCBAP) to provide 1.5 free CE hours. All staff are invited to attend, and we will be grateful for your help in informing clients, families and others!
