This six hour training is an expanded version of the training first given at the NDMDA Annual Conference Facilitators Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio in August 2001 and refined over the years since then. Chapter leaders and experienced peer and professional facilitators are welcome.

This is not a workshop on starting a new chapter, but on becoming a competent group leader. This training is the first step in learning how to facilitate a support group. People attending this training need not have any prior knowledge of facilitating a group, only the desire and interest to learn. Many people have attended this workshop solely to learn communication skills and to become a better group participant.
