Is support group right for you?
Individuals who attend our support and education groups come from all walks and stages of life. Some are in a relationship and just beginning to wonder if what they are experiencing is abuse. Others are struggling with emotional, financial, and legal issues after months or years of abuse or separation from an abusive partner. A trained Partners for Peace volunteer facilitates our weekly online support group.
Support Groups are held once a week on Zoom and offer a chance to talk, make friends, share experiences, and get encouragement and understanding.
The focus is on what’s going on in your life now. It’s a time to listen, support, share experiences, learn from each other, and help each other gain strength and perspective.
