This is where difficult questions are expected\, appreciated\, and answered. Have a coffee\, check out a human “book\,” and learn something new that may help you in your recovery journey or awareness. \n\n\n\nFor more information on the Human Library\, visit: www.humanlibrary.org \n\n\n\n\n\nPlease RSVP: URL:https://braininjurysvcs.org/event/human-library-experiment/2025-03-26/ LOCATION:Caboose Commons Coffeehouse\, 2918 Eskridge Rd\, Fairfax\, Virginia\, United States CATEGORIES:Caregiver,Client,Public ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://braininjurysvcs.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Human-Library-Graphic.png ORGANIZER;CN="Michelle Thyen":MAILTO:mthyen@braininjurysvcs.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250325T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250325T120000 DTSTAMP:20260530T114159 CREATED:20240719T145611Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251114T145633Z UID:10001525-1742900400-1742904000@braininjurysvcs.org SUMMARY:Fredericksburg Women’s Coffee Social Group  DESCRIPTION:This social/support group is for clients\, loved ones\, and caregivers.
