<Title>Healing from Family Challenges Group</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><span>Healing from Family Challenges </span><span>is a
    six-week group that provides psychoeducation and skills that help address the effects
    of adverse childhood experiences. It helps the members to recognize how these
    past challenging experiences might be impacting their current functioning and
    helps individuals identify healthy ways of coping with their experiences.
    Students transition from surviving past experiences to thriving in the present.
    The group creates a safe and supportive environment to develop an alternate way
    of looking at the past and develop a sense of meaning and purpose that help
    them thrive today. </span></p>
    <p><span>Wednesdays, 3:00 PM-4:30 PM beginning February 19</span></p>
    <p><span>The first step to joining any group is to complete an Initial Consultation appointment. Please call us at 410-455-2542 or visit the RetrieverCare portal to schedule.</span></p>
    <p><span>For general group questions, or if you need accommodations for a disability, please send a secure message to CC Front Desk via the <a href="https://myretrievercare.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">patient portal</a> at least one week prior to the start of group and RIH will arrange for services.</span></p>
    <p><span>All RIH services are LGBTQIA2S+ friendly and are welcoming to all diverse populations.</span></p>

    <div>Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) is an IRS-sponsored program that provides free, tax return preparation to eligible individuals and families each Spring semester.  Volunteers complete a rigorous training program and pass an IRS certification exam every year.  Individuals and families who wish to come to the UMBC campus and have their income taxes prepared must meet IRS eligibility criteria. A few of the criteria include:</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>You must have a Social Security card for each person listed on the tax return.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Your household income must be less than an amount set each year (typically around $65,000).</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>You can't be an international student or scholar (F, J, M, or Q Visa or Teachers or Trainees on a J Visa)</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Your tax return must not require forms related to small business losses, virtual currency sale, certain cancellation of debt types, and several others.</div>
