Past events
Talking about Women and Our Relationship to Alcohol featuring Drink, a memoir on Alcohol Use by Ann Dowsett-Johnson, 4/20/23 @ Reading Public Library, 64 Middlesex Avenue. Check out a copy of Ann's book and come on 4/20 to participate in an important conversation about women and alcohol. A quote from Ann on her book "I grew up in a world where people kept secrets: it was taboo to talk about my mother’s problematic drinking. When I first discovered I too had a problem with drinking, I turned to memoirs to find my way forward. When I found recovery, my one wish was to write a book for all the women still struggling, numbing with alcohol. Writing Drink was one of the happiest experiences of my life, and when the book was finished, I knew I had broken the taboo."
Postpartum & Perinatal Mental Health Presentation, 4/27/23 @ the Reading Public Library from 7-8:30pm, sponsored by Reading Coalition. In light of recent events, we all have questions about postpartum depression and perinatal mental health. Join us to learn what to look for and how to help if you believe someone is experiencing symptoms of postpartum depression. Our Public Safety Clinician Taunya L. Jarzyniecki, LMHC, MLADC, will be leading the discussion. Reading Public Library, 64 Middlesex Avenue, Reading, MA.
