Please note that in an effort to provide support to all who attend; this program requires a 15-week commitment. To assure maximum support given to both you and others, we ask that you please arrive no more than 10 minutes late. We take our programs very seriously so we can provide the most reliable sense of support possible, which is why if you miss more than two support groups or yoga (or meal support if registered for), and/or repeatedly arrive 10 minutes or more late to group, you will be asked to rejoin when you have more availability.

**Most insurance plans will cover this, as "group medical nutrition therapy," however you are ultimately responsible for any fees your insurance does not cover**
