I run a group for drug dependant adults that also have a diagnosis of mental illness. I need some fun activities and ideas for group therapy. I would like them to have fun instead of it being like a class room. I’d like them to open up to each other and staff. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all!
