What is Banish Burnout? 

Our Banish Burnout Series offers dayhome professionals a relaxed space to connect, share experiences, and tackle the challenges of burnout and isolation together.
 
We start by watching a brief YouTube video, which sparks a conversation that flows naturally from there.
 
It’s a supportive, no-pressure environment where you can connect with others who truly “get” what running a dayhome program is like.
 
Join us on the second Wednesday of the month, starting at 1 PM. Feel free to join at any point during the hour.
