Community Support Groups
CWS offers a confidential, ongoing support group for survivors of domestic violence. This group is run by experienced, trained volunteers. Because the group is confidential interested people must complete an initialscreening to make sure the group is a good fit. If you are interested in attending, please contact Sylvia Smith at (503) 722-2366 x 114.
We are excited to announce that CWS will be starting a support group for survivors of sexual assault and childhood sexual abuse. This group is expected to begin in the next few months. If you are interested or would like more information please contact Jennifer Hopkinson, MSW.
Additionally, Abuse Recovery Ministry & Services (www.armsonline.org) offers several Christian based support groups for survivors of domestic violence throughout Clackamas County.
Individual & Family Counseling Services
CWS offers individual and family counseling for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault including childhood sexual abuse. Individual counseling for children may be offered when appropriate. These services are confidential and free to those who qualify.
If you are interested in individual or family counseling or to find out if you are eligible please contact Jennifer Hopkinson, MSW, or Sylvia Smith at (503) 722-2366 x 114 for more information.
