The St. Olaf SARN Peer Support Group has a mission of providing a safe space for peers to support each other in their healing process following sexual violence. Please note that this group is not a therapeutic group, but rather led by SARN advocates and aimed at encouraging healing through community building and support. Meetings occur on a weekly basis on Sundays from 4-5. Check-out their page for more information concerning the membership and purpose of the group.
All group members of the SARN Peer Support Group are asked to commit to the following:
- Confidentiality. No information will be shared outside of the group regarding who is in the group or any personal information shared.
- Attendance. Members will make an effort to attend all sessions in order to foster community, and let us know if they will be unable to attend a session.
- Thoughtfulness. To get the most out of the group, members will be thoughtful about where they are on their journey and how the group time can best further their healing process.
- Respect. Respectful of members’ experiences, responses, background, identity, and choices.
