All support group leaders are volunteers who either have these disorders or have a family member diagnosed. While it is their desire to offer support, spread awareness and make a difference in the lives of those affected, please keep in mind that they may not always be available to help. You can contact the ASAP office by email [email protected] or call 903-236-7079. ASAP is greatly appreciative for the time and labor our volunteers give. Without them we would not be able to offer the many programs that are available.

ASAP brought me from a very isolated and depressed state. Knowing that you are not alone brings with it a level of healing and peace of mind I never imagined possible. ASAP has eased my mental suffering translating into making me feel better physically.-Karen, Tennessee
