ACS' ASAT Program is Starting 2 New Groups!

Seeking Safety is an evidence-based group therapy for treating trauma and/or substance use. In this group, participants will work on skills such as building healthy relationships, reducing harmful behaviors, managing symptoms, and restoring lost ideals or values. There will be two Seeking Safety Groups - one for teens ages 14-18, another for young adults ages 19-25.

WHEN: Tuesdays, 7:00 PM
WHERE: ACS Headquarters, 1779 Woodside Road, Suite 200, Redwood City, CA 94061
