Notes
This is a self-study program for living a healthy life with chronic pain. Participants receive a toolkit that includes a reference book, exercise CD, and relaxation CD. Every week participants have a one-hour group telephone call with a class leader
[. . .]
to connect with others and review topics like action planning, nutrition, making treatment decisions, and communicating with health care providers and family. Toolkits and group call information will be sent to participants after registration.
This "virtual" class will be held via telephone. All participants must have a phone (with the speakerphone function). Registered participants will receive class information and the phone number to call for each session prior to the class start date. This class is being provided by East Side Neighborhood Services, a social service nonprofit in NE Minneapolis.
