Session 8
Group Session 8: Group Closure
Facilitate closure
Members give other members symbolic gifts to assist in recovery

The eighth session will open with the Facilitator asking the group members how they are doing today. The Facilitator will talk about the progress that the group has made and how everyone has had a positive impact on the group. The Facilitator will then ask who wants to start off the gift giving process. After all the gifts have been exchanged, the Facilitator will ask the group members if they were able to achieve what they thought they would achieve by attending the group. Facilitator will have members elaborate on either response. Facilitator will ask the group members if there is anything that someone wanted to say during the group that they did not say. Facilitator will end the group with informing the people that if they still individual counseling, that is an option or if you want, there is a support group that meets one time per month at a specific location. If no other comments, thank the group members and treatment is terminated.
