Group Peer Support
Research shows that peer support improves people's wellbeing, leading to fewer hospital stays, larger support networks, and better self-esteem, confidence and social skills. By providing this space and structure we feel we are contributing to the healing of our community and helping build a strong foundation for change that some parents have not experienced.
Our mission is simple - Create space where space is needed
Father’s Group
Evidence shows the enormous impact fathers have on their children from birth, it also shows men are given very little support when they become parents. Historically we have just expected dads to "man up" and figure it out, while everyone is mother and child focused. It’s easy to forget that the father is also having a dramatic transition to parenthood, lack of sleep, time, nutrition also affect the fathers and their ability to support their new babies and significant others
The truth is, if we help fathers, we help mothers. If we help them, we also help their children.
Left Outside: reunited support
There's this thing that happens when you hit your bottom and CPS or the system gets involved. All of a sudden these doors of support are opened for you, these arms are wrapped around you that help steady you while you are healing. You are welcomed into a group, with people who understand what you are going through, how you are feeling, and maybe even what led you there.
This support is crucial to the healing and recovery process. Then one day, when someone else feels like you have recovered and they graduate you from the system, BAMN, there is nothing there, nothing steadying that wobble you feel from the rapid removal of support. Having that continued support while you navigate yet another new level of your recovery is what helps cement that foundation that was made in the system. Without it, relapse of one way or another is much more likely.
