Lacrosse & Talking Circle Series @ SRMT Senior Center
May 22 @ 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Healing happens in many ways — through conversation, connection, and the game that has always brought our people together.

MCA Addictions Services invites Akwesasronon (18+) to a weekly Talking Circle & Lacrosse Night, where we can share our experiences, support one another, and learn tools to overcome addiction. Each night begins with a talking circle, followed by a friendly game of lacrosse — because healing happens both on and off the floor.

📅 Thursdays (March 27 – May 22)
📍 Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe Senior Center
🕕 6:00 – 7:00 PM (Talking Circle)
🕖 7:00 – 8:00 PM (Lacrosse at Generations Park)

Participants can also take VR Narcan training, hear from a special NLL guest, and enter to win door prizes and giveaways!

For more information, contact Addictions Services at 613-575-2341 ext. 3115. Lacrosse is medicine — so is community. Let’s heal together.
