What’s happening at AMI in February

We’ve got all kinds of workshops and support groups. Take a look!

If you’re looking for something fun to do, we’ve got a free online tour of Catania, Sicily. It’s a good way to practice self-care and is a bit of an escape from the dark, cold days of winter.

And introducing our new feature! We will include a helpful blog post at the end of each of our monthly program emails. Take a look below.

If you’ve got questions or need help, we are just a call or a click away:
