EmpowerSurvivors peer support groups are groups of people who gather to share common problems and experiences associated with childhood sexual abuse.
In a support group, people are able to talk with other survivors who are like themselves; people who truly understand what they're going through, and can share the type of practical insights that can only come from firsthand experience.
Our peer support groups are facilitated by fellow survivors of childhood sexual abuse and are not intended to replace therapy.
