Support Groups

Safe Voices confidential support groups provide a safe place to listen and talk with others who have experienced domestic violence in their lives. Attending a support group can help you understand the pain of living with domestic abuse in a supportive, encouraging and non-judgmental environment. All groups are facilitated by trained domestic violence victim's advocates who are here to offer information, emotional support and referrals to other resources and support as you make the choices you feel are best for you.

Safe Voices offers a wide variety of confidential support groups throughout Androscoggin, Franklin and Oxford Counties for individuals who have experienced abuse in a relationship.
