We offer traditional support groups for survivors and their loved ones. Support groups provide a safe space for those impacted by sexual violence to learn and heal together. Through discussion of sexual trauma, shared or individual experiences, and local resources, these groups help increase connection and support for survivors, caregivers, partners, and others.
Most of our groups meet weekly at a set time in our office or community. Please complete the form below to express your interest and we will contact you when a new cohort is starting! |
Activity-Based Peer GroupsActivity-based groups offer a wide range of opportunities to connect, learn, and heal through shared experiences. These may include art-based workshops that encourage creativity and self-expression, horticultural therapy that fosters connection with nature, walking groups that promote movement and community, group outings to explore local spaces, and so much more. These programs are designed to be flexible, inclusive, and responsive to the interests of participants. We’re always looking to grow and evolve our offerings, please fill out the form below and let us know what kinds of activities or experiences you’d be excited to see!
