Safe Monroe brings you a new trauma-informed hybrid support group!

“Together, We Rise” combines traditional talking/peer support with an art workshop. The objective of this group is to empower women to rise up from the ashes of their circumstances and stand in opposition to violence. We will touch on subjects including (but not limited to)- red flags, boundaries, and safety planning.

The support group will run once per month from February until July of 2023 | 5:30 - 7:00 pm.

The meeting dates are as follows:

  • February 22, 2023
  • March 15, 2023
  • April 19, 2023
  • May 17, 2023
  • June 21, 2023
  • July 19, 2023

All meetings are being held at our main office in the Delaware Water Gap. If transportation is an issue, we can accommodate those with a Zoom link to join after the art portion of the meeting is over.

We are currently accepting women only. All those who plan on attending should call to register before each meeting.
