LEWISTON — Sexual violence violates a person’s trust and feelings of safety. Many individuals describe feeling very alone with no one to talk with who will understand. Various types of support groups are offered at Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Services to help survivors feel more connected to others.
Support groups offer an opportunity for individuals to come together to share experiences, discuss information and exchange resources. SAPARS hopes the group process will diminish isolation, enhance self-determination and assist in the healing process.
SAPARS is currently working with trauma-sensitive yoga instructor Beth Jones to hold a group in Lewiston. Yoga mats and other equipment will be provided. The group will begin at the end of January and run through mid-March.
If you are interested in learning more, please call 207-784-5272 and ask to speak with Kayce. Individuals must attend a screening interview prior to the start of the group to make sure the group will be the right experience for them. Groups at SAPARS are provided free of charge.
