COMMUNITY HUMAN SERVICES CALENDAR
The Human Services Calendar offers residents of St. Joseph County, Michigan a single source for supportive events within the county that relate to all areas of human services or low cost recreation. Because personal health is impacted by many factors, promoting these events directly contributes to the well-being of our community by getting individuals and families connected to needed services, engaged in healthy activities, and interacting with others in the community.

FACING YOUR FEELINGS: Join us as we take a journey exploring wellness recovery strategies for
managing distressing or uncomfortable feelings more effectively.
SHY NO LONGER: Almost everyone gets a little anxious or embarrassed in front of other people now
and then, though some of us are shyer than others. Sometimes, though, the anxiety can be so intense
that it stops us from doing the things we enjoy, or starts interfering in our daily lives. In this group we will
explore the benefits of socializing, stepping out of our fear, increased social interaction, and the enriching
of our wellbeing.
