Support Groups

Continuing care is key to long-term recovery from behavioral health issues. Endeavor Health/Linden Oaks Behavioral Health hosts a variety of support groups to help reinforce the coping skills learned during treatment and support the family and friends of individuals in recovery.

Structure and support are vital in transitioning from treatment back to everyday life. By joining a support group, you'll meet others who are coping with similar situations, creating a network to help you through challenging times.
