*Explanation of Alternate Sessions: The

drugs and the disease of chemical dependency. Since not all children
attending Recovery Ministry groups are from homes where addiction is the primary
issue, these sessions have been added. KLM administrators can choose
which session plans are most appropriate for the children attending their
groups.
