Greetings!
Though we've only just started 2011, Crossroads for Women is busy as ever. This month, we're proud to announce that Crossroads will be presenting at the NIATx Summit and SAAS National Conference in Boston, alongside The Recovery Center at Mercy Hospital and Youth Alternatives Ingraham. We are looking for a Finance Director to join our senior management team, and we're getting some outpatient therapy groups going at our newest outpatient location, Windham Counseling Center.
A couple quick bits of news: Due to popular demand, Crossroads for Women is now accepting Medicare! And, we have dates for the Managing Chronic Pain group in Kennebunk mentioned in last month's newsletter: 3/17/11 - 5/5/11. (See the sidebar for more info.)
