Support Groups
Many participants say the support groups are the most helpful part of the program:
“I know that I am not alone.”
“I feel hope again.”
“I have rejoined the land of the living.”
“This program has given me the spiritual nurturing I so desperately needed.”
“I cried. I laughed. I made new friends. I came closer to God.”
