πŸ’œ Surviving intimate partner abuse is a traumat πŸ’œ Surviving intimate partner abuse is a traumatic experience and it helps to have a safe place to talk about it. Our support groups offer safe, caring spaces so you don't have to heal alone. 

We host groups at our emergency shelter for residents and in the community in Georgetown, Stanford, and Frankfort. Online meetings are also available. Some focus on shared survivor experiences, while others explore specific topics like co-parenting or spiritual care. 

Call our hotline at 800-544-2022 or find more information at the link in bio.
