African American Support Group

🌻 November African American Support Group Gathering
Topic: Supported Decision-Making: Empowering Choices, Building Independence
Date: Saturday, November 22nd 2025
Time: 10:00am-12:00pm
Location: Lemon Grove Community Center (3146 School Ln Lemon Grove, CA 91945)

Join us this November for our monthly African American Support Group—a welcoming space to connect, learn, and support one another in community. This support group is for members and families of the San Diego Regional Center. This month’s discussion will focus on Supported Decision-Making (SDM)—what it is, how it differs from conservatorship or guardianship, and how it can empower individuals to make their own choices with trusted support. We’ll explore who can benefit from SDM and share practical examples of how families and community members can use it to promote independence and self-determination.

In addition to our discussion, we’ll have a food pantry available for families in need, offering fresh produce, canned goods, and ready-to-eat meals.

As a special thank-you for attending, we’ll also hold a raffle for $25 grocery store gift cards to help families prepare for the upcoming holiday season.

Come connect, learn, and uplift one another in a supportive and culturally affirming environment. All are welcome!

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
