Children are profoundly impacted by witnessing or experiencing domestic violence and sexual abuse. Our Children’s Program provides a safe environment for them to talk about their feelings and how the abuse has affected their lives. Children learn healthy coping strategies and non-violent interaction skills. Non-offending parents are provided with support to help them cope effectively with their own emotions and how to respond to their abused children.
Our program offers:
Individual counseling
Support groups
Play groups
Parenting support
Family activities
Summer Day Camp
