Groups
Women's Support Group - Survivors of Sexual Abuse
Isolation and disconnection are at the core of a survivor's experience of sexual violence. Connecting with others who have had similar experiences can help an individual build relationships and trust. The group experience has been found to be a powerful healing tool, whether the history of sexual assault or abuse occurred recently or in the past.
