Next Meeting Features OCD Moms Panel on June 9, 2008  

Our next quarterly meeting will be on Monday June 9, 2008.  We will have a panel of several women who are moms of kids who have OCD.  They will each share a little bit about how OCD has been manifested in their children, and what kinds of treatment (therapy, medication, etc) they have tried.  We will then open up the meeting for audience members to ask questions of these panelists.   We have always found that the panels at NJOCF events, whether the quarterly meetings or the annual conference, tend to me the most popular events.  They are usually encouraging, informative and moving.  We hope you can join us for this event.
