SUMMARY:Postpartum Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Postpartum Support International\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNEW SUPPORT GROUP!\n\n\n\nPostpartum Psychosis (PPP) is rare. It occurs in approximately 1 to 2 out of every 1\,000 deliveries.  After a PPP survivor’s symptoms have been stabilized\, peer support can be an important tool for recovery. Because PPP occurs less often than other perinatal mood disorders\, survivors can go their whole lives without meeting another PPP survivor.  In response\, PSI has created an online peer-to-peer support group for PPP survivors. This group is intended for those who are in recovery (no longer experiencing psychosis).   Whether your PPP experience was relatively recent or years ago\, you are welcome to attend our free\, online peer-to-peer support group.\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here: https://www.postpartum.net/…/psi-online-support-meetings/\nFull Meeting Schedule

SUMMARY:Not Your Typical Choral Concert - I Cantori present Songs of Destiny
DESCRIPTION:Not Your Typical Choral Concert – I Cantori present Songs of Destiny\nSaturday\, June 14\, 7:30pm \nWhat happens when nearly 100 musicians from Santa Cruz and Monterey come together on one stage? You get a choral and orchestral concert that’s anything but typical. This June\, musicians from across our region come together for a live concert that blends the power of a symphonic chorus with the color and intensity of a full orchestra. \nThis kind of performance is rare in communities like ours. It takes months of work\, a lot of heart\, and a deep pool of local talent to bring it to life. \nYou’ll hear music by Brahms\, Boulanger\, Debussy\, Ravel\, and Vaughan Williams\, performed by I Cantori di Carmel under the direction of Daniel Henriks. This concert invites you to slow down\, reflect\, and take a night off. It’s moving\, beautifully crafted\, and rarely performed live on this scale. The program is sweeping\, expressive\, and deeply human. No prior knowledge of classical music is required. Just come ready to listen. \nThese are rescheduled dates. If you missed it before or thought it had already happened\, now is your chance to catch it live. \nWhether you’re a longtime classical fan or just curious\, this concert offers something real\, beautifully performed\, and worth showing up for. \nSaturday\, June 14 at 7:30 PM — UCSC Recital Hall\, Santa Cruz \nTickets range from $20-$45\n$20 tickets available for students\, active military\, and anyone under 30\nDetails at icantori.org
