At Safe Harbor, we recognize that healing and growth cannot happen in isolation. When given the opportunity to connect, survivors of domestic violence can gain support, encouragement and strength from one another.
Safe Harbor offers survivor support groups, in addition to classes for survivors to learn more about the cycle of violence, setting healthy boundaries and increasing safety.
Empowering Survivors is a virtual support group for women who have experienced abuse or control in their marriage or relationship. This group focuses on positive support and encouragement. Participants will not be asked to share details of their abuse, but rather, explore the impact it has had on their lives and work towards healing and hope in a supportive environment.
Empowering Survivors meets on Monday evenings from 6-7:30pm. Anyone who is currently experiencing abuse or who has experienced abuse in a past relationship is welcome to attend.
