VIRTUAL, RF Sober Parenting Support Group

March 19 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT

Rainbow Families DC is pleased to offer our support group for prospective, expecting, and established queer parents interested in getting or staying sober from drugs and alcohol, and dealing with sobriety’s mental and emotional challenges.  

These group sessions are a space for members of our community to share and learn with/from one another in a caring, safe environment – even make peer connections with others on a path of recovery, balancing the demands of parenting with adequate self care.   

The group will discuss topics related to experiences in sobriety, including parenting in sobriety, habits, triggers, self-care, mindfulness, negative thinking, forgiveness, coping with stress, and how to talk to children about recovery.   

2024 Spring Series Dates:        Feb 20   |  Mar 19
