Long-Term Housing

Friendship Home offers peer support groups for adults and their children. Information is provided in a safe and supportive environment. These voluntary groups cover a range of topics; domestic violence, trauma, parenting support, and strengths, providing survivors with the opportunity to validate one another’s experiences, increase their knowledge of resources, and to continue on a path to safety and healing.

“I thought, well, this is my life. This is the level I’ve been at for the last several years; this is how it will be moving forward. Now I see that my situation is just temporary. I have been able to see my options and build resources. I’m getting mightier and mightier.”
