About

About This Event

The Survivor Support Evening is a safe, intimate gathering specifically for survivors of domestic violence, emotional abuse, or bullying — at any stage of their journey. This is not a therapy session or a crisis intervention; it is a community space for connection, shared experience, and mutual support.

Trained facilitators create a structured environment that balances openness with safety. Participation looks different for every person — some share, some listen, some simply need to be in a room full of people who understand. All of that is welcome here.

To protect attendees, the exact location of this event is shared only with registered participants 48 hours in advance. Counselors and resource specialists are present throughout the evening.
