Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Call 215-940-0550 or send a question through the contact form on paan1989.org to ask how to join the mailing list or attend the next open event..

You need to sign up first.

What to expect

A first step is a phone call, a contact form message, or a mailing list sign-up. The site does not say what intake for its prevention or crisis programs looks like, how long it takes, or who qualifies. It describes a men's breakfast that about 30 men attended, but gives no date, time or cost for it.

Tips for your first visit

  • Call before you go, since the site does not list office hours.
  • Ask whether an event is for men only or open to everyone, since the site does not say.
  • Confirm the office address first, because a directory listing gives a slightly different street address for the same suite.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The mailing list is open to anyone, and the site lists a phone line and a contact form. The site does not describe intake for its programs or say how events are announced..
