Participants are <br /> also asked to provide qualitative feedback about the service(s)they utilized at the OCRCC,to <br /> evaluate their service provider,and to comment on the accessibility of our programs.The Client <br /> Services Director compiles data after each support group and at the end of the fiscal year. <br /> Program Results 95%of support group <br /> participants reported that our <br /> groups helped them feel less <br /> alone in their experience. <br /> 94%of support group <br /> participants reported that our <br /> groups made them feel more <br /> supported in their healing <br /> process. <br /> Main Application 1/25/2016 12:55:42 PM P a g e 1 5 o f 3 2 <br />
