Teen Support Group for
Victims of Interpersonal Violence
Thursdays 4:00-5:30 PM
Contact: Kelly Andrews, M.S., 623-2115 x32
kelly.andrews@ywca-shr.org
Teens experience interpersonal violence (physical, sexual, and verbal abuse) differently than adults and need a safe place to share and relate to others their age. This group is supportive in nature, but also will encourage the teen to grow and recover from the abuse in their past. Art interventions may also be used to help facilitate discussion.
This is an open group and new members can join at any time. There is a $10 fee per group.
