SAMI Collaborates with Harbor Regional Center to Provide Services to People with Developmental Disabilities

The Stress & Anger Management Institute (SAMI) is now offering anger and stress management education to families of and patients of the Harbor Regional Center (HRC) program for developmental disabilities.

Hermosa Beach, CA (PRWEB) May 17, 2007 -- The Stress & Anger Management Institute (SAMI) is now offering anger and stress management education to families of and patients of the Harbor Regional Center (HCR) program for developmental disabilities. The HCR program is working with nearly 10,000 individuals of diverse ages and cultural backgrounds who are coping with conditions such as mental retardation, autism, cerebral palsy and epilepsy. Each of these developmental disabilities can create stress and anger issues for the individual and their families. The collaboration between SAMI and HCR will initiate at HCR's Mental Health Resource Fair on May 30, 2007 at 21231 Hawthorne Blvd. in Torrance, CA.

The focus of SAMI's program with HCR patients and their families will be to identify potential communication problems, understand nonverbal communication cues, help families to recognize and normalize anger as well as find acceptable ways to channel the individual expression of anger, and eliminate or minimize "person-directed" anger.

"It is a tremendous opportunity for SAMI to work with the Harbor Regional Center patients and their families. Not only does it provide important information that can help keep a family together in a potentially stressful health situation, but it demonstrates SAMI's commitment to helping our community be emotionally strong and healthy," says Anutza Bellissimo,CAMF.
