EmpowerSurvivors is providing telehealth mental health services via Zoom by offering
peer-led support groups. Due to the shelter in place order, many in our community are struggling with increased mental health symptoms such as PTSD, suicidal ideation, increased depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions.
With the risk of mental illness on the rise and limited services available, EmpowerSurvivors has begun to meet the needs of survivors during these times of uncertainty, by offering peer-led group support, individual support and a sense of community for those living with mental health conditions. Many have already expressed that our peer-led support groups have provided hope, support and a lifeline where it wouldn't have otherwise been. We are offering telehealth meetings in both mornings and evenings to meet the increased need for our donation-based support services.
All In Person Groups, Classes, Workshops Are Suspended For The Safety Of Our Members During The Corona Virus.

EmpowerSurvivors realizes that not every survivor has a peer support group in their area. We believe no survivor of childhood sexual abuse should go unsupported and because of this we formed a"Closed" EmpowerSurvivors peer support group on Facebook. By being a part of a"Closed" group you are able to join others online without your comments or posts showing up on your public news feed. Privacy is important and we try to do our best to ensure that for all survivors

Friends & Family Support Group
https://www.facebook.com/groups/2085854528365607/
Our EmpowerSurvivors Friends and Family "Closed" Support Group is a support group dedicated to support those who have a loved one that was sexually abused as a child. Whether you are married to a survivor of CSA, friend or family member you may wonder what the best approach is to helping your loved one process childhood sexual abuse and also how you too can stay healthy on this healing journey.
For many, it is hard to know where to go when you have questions about childhood sexual abuse, a partner who is now dealing with the abuse done to them as a child, or simply need a support group of their own while a loved one heals. Sexual abuse effects all of us. Come join a support group that supports and educates those that are partners, friends and family of CSA survivors. This group is not monitored by a mental health professional or agency. This is a group made up of people who have loved ones in their lives that were abused as children and are looking for support while they support their loved ones.
