Childhood Sexual Assault Group Forming



Childhood Sexual Assault Group Forming

The effects of childhood sexual abuse often follow survivors into adulthood. They can be more pervasive and inescapable than most people could imagine. If you have suffered childhood sexual assault and are looking for a safe and supportive environment where you can discuss your experiences and how they impact you, or if you want to meet other women who share a similar past, then this confidential support group could be helpful and healing.

The group will meet Thursday evenings beginning February 7 for 10 weeks from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the Sexual Assault Center in Old Town Alexandria. The group is open to City residents and City government employees at no cost. All group members must be receiving individual therapy or case management services while participating and all members must meet with a Sexual Assault Group Facilitator before beginning. For more information, contact Constance Wallace at 703.746.3126. Members are asked to commit to all 10 sessions.
