Support Group for Adult Survivors of Child Abuse Offers Healing

Support Group for Adult Survivors of Child Abuse Offers Healing 940 788 Safe Passage for Children of Minnesota

Volunteers and friends of Safe Passage are starting a support group for adult survivors of child abuse.

Similar groups, such as SNAP for survivors of sexual abuse by priests, have found that sharing one’s story with people who have had similar experiences can generate healing that therapy doesn’t always accomplish. 

Their ground rules open with this statement:

“We who have survived childhood abuse understand as few others can. We carried that experience with us through adolescence and into adulthood as we were developing our lives. We urge you to share our meetings, our experiences, strength, and hope.”

The group meets the second Sunday of each month at 7:00 p.m. via Zoom.  Upcoming topics include self-care, letting go of behaviors that no longer work, and speaking up for oneself. 

Anyone interested in participating can contact Karen Nestingen at knestingen@earthlink.net.
