• As our organization and our work on the Procovery program grows, one of the areas we will be focusing extensively on is the application of the Procovery program to elderly persons. In the meantime, in response to requests to expand on the Procovery and the Elderly section of the book The Power of Procovery in Healing Mental Illness, we are providing this short FAQ on Procovery and Aging.   Helping elderly persons live well despite chronic illness and/or the complex issues surrounding illness? How can they move forward when they no longer can move back? How can they continue to live and grow and find meaning for the whole of their lives? How can family and loved ones best support this process?
