Support for "Effective Support Groups",
By Thomas Hall (Cape Cod MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Effective Support Groups (Paperback)
This small, concise, book provides a great practical guide for anyone wanting to initate a support group of virtually any kind. I found it more helpful than college texts 10 times it's size.

Effective Support Groups,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Effective Support Groups (Paperback)
I loved that it was concise and gave me everything I needed to start Bereavement and Caregiver Support Groups. I did not have to wade through much longer volumes to get up and running. And i continue to learn by doing .... but James Miller pointed me in the right direction and raised my awareness of everything I needed to be watching for. Jeanne Childs, Chaplain

Effective Support Groups,

This review is from: Effective Support Groups (Paperback)
I guess this book would help someone who has never been in a support group or, perhaps, needs help organizing his thoughts. I found it very obvious and condescending.
