Moving Beyond Route 91: Final 2023 Sessions
As we approach six years since October 1, 2017, and the Vegas Strong Resiliency Center prepares to transition to a statewide resource for survivors of crime, some in the Route 91 community may be feeling strong emotions. We want you to know that we’re still here for you and invite you to join John Polish of the Unstuck Foundation as he once again offers a journey towards happiness in the no-cost online program that the Route 91 family has been utilizing for years.
Over the course of five sessions on Mondays and Thursdays, you’ll participate in two-hour webinars that will equip you with the necessary tools to find joy in life once more. During this esteemed program, you’ll listen to insightful discussions on trauma recovery and engage in small group activities. There will also be time for personal reflection and group discussions, allowing you to connect with others who’ve shared similar experiences from 1 October and beyond.
You’ll have the opportunity to apply the knowledge gained to your own circumstances and create a personalized plan for ongoing personal growth. To support your progress, you’ll receive a workbook that serves as a helpful reference during presentations and activities.
Educational portions of each session are recorded and participants can view makeup sessions or review them upon request. Upon completion of the program, there will be monthly meetings for follow-up, ongoing connections, and continued application of skills and information learned.
Please note that the Moving Beyond program requires a commitment of five sessions. We strongly encourage attending all of them, but if you need to miss one, we’ll provide makeup content to keep you on track.
