How to Build Family Connection + Resilience:
Leading Treatment Center to Give Presentation for Bar Harbor Community
Presentation to be held at the Criterion Theatre on Thursday, October 13, 2022, from 6 to 7:30 p.m.
This event is sponsored by Side Street Cafe, a family-run restaurant in the heart of
Bar Harbor and the Criterion Theatre.
BAR HARBOR - Caron Treatment Centers, a leading, internationally recognized nonprofit dedicated to addiction and behavioral healthcare, will be giving a free presentation at the Criterion Theatre on Thursday, October 13, 2022, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. No registration is necessary, and all are welcome.
Today’s families and communities are faced with many challenges – such as addiction, isolation, and pressures from social media and everyday life. This presentation will provide attendees with 10 ways to build resilience, so they have the capacity to rebound, restore and face adversity with a renewed sense of hope.
Jena Young, co-owner of Side Street Cafe, was inspired to create this event when she attended Caron’s Family Education Program with her family 10 years ago. “We recognized that the information we learned could be valuable to every person, regardless of their situation. The information extended far beyond substance misuse to truly understanding ourselves and growing from there. We wanted to bring a small portion of that program to our community,” said Young. “We have carried the lessons we learned with us, especially in our roles as parents. We are thrilled to welcome Cheryl Knepper from Caron to our community with practical skills and an incredible message of hope.”
Cheryl Knepper is the Senior Vice President of Clinical Support Services at Caron. Programs within her oversight include Breakthrough, Family Services, Recreation/ Wellness, and Creative Art Therapies. Cheryl has worked extensively in the field of behavioral health since 1986 and has presented at numerous national and international conferences.
Caron Treatment Center is a leader in addiction recovery and prevention. Caron transforms lives impacted by addiction and substance use through proven, comprehensive, and patient-centric treatment plans. They are dedicated to delivering evidence-based programming while treating patients and families with the respect they deserve.
