Women’s Recovery Group
Once no one talked about women and addictions. Today we know that substance abuse and addiction is present with our sisters, mothers, daughters, aunts, and friends and is fast approaching the same extent as among men. The Summit will be addressing women’s concerns with their special needs including low self-esteem, attachments to unhealthy relationships, gender harassment, violence, parenting, health issues. The goal for women substance abusers in the group is to maintain abstinence. They will discover healthier ways to make decisions, and plan a recovery program to sustain recovery. The difference in a women’s group will be its focus on a strength based perspective that is empowering for women who are trying to not only get sober but to experience safety, healthy connections and greater strength to function in her daily life. This single gender group provides an early recovery setting for working through self-care and learning new principles.
