What is a Prosumer?

A Prosumer is someone who gives back to the community and is proactive in their recovery!

The Prosumers meet the second Friday of every month and from Noon until 3.

The Prosumer group meets monthly at the UHSC School of Nursing located at 7703 Floyd Curl in San Antonio, TX. (Map) The Louis Pasteur entrance of the University Campus is closer to the actual nursing school. On Louis Pasteur, enter at the third entrance where the Guard gate is. The officer can direct you to parking.

At this time, there is a Charge for Parking.

The guards also have maps of the campus if you would like. If you take the bus, you will need routes 91 or 92. There will be signs directing you to the School of Nursing.

Our meetings start with a meal and then we move into our empowerment meeting. Our meetings are designed to inform you, educate you, inspire you and help you to be the best you, you can be. There are a variety of topics that are facilitated by Prosumer Leaders. Check the current newsletter for the current topic. Everyone is welcome. There is no charge.

This group will help you feel better, do better and will help anyone be more successful in life. We utilize Corporate Training Techinques in many of the meetings. In our research project with the School of Nursing, it was found that we utilize a Salutogentic approach to wellness. Our focus is on wellness and staying well. The number one reason people stop coming to the group is because they have gone back to work or to school. That is an awesome statement. If you have lost your dreams, if you have lost your meaning of life, come join us for a meeting. You will find friends, knowledge and yourself.

The Prosumers also meet the third Tuesday of every month and from 6 pm until 9 pm.

The Prosumer group meets monthly at La Paz, 530 San Pedro in San Antonio, TX (Map) . This meeting is like our day meeting but in the evening to meet the needs of the Prosumers who have gone back to school or have gone back to work. The topic may be a repeat of the day meeting or may be a different topic. Check the newsletter to find out.
