Peer support groups

Laurel House’s peer support groups provide victim-survivors with space to connect with others who have lived through similar experiences of sexual violence.

Our support groups offer spaces that support victim-survivors to:

feel respected and supported
build connections with peers who understand your experience
share as much or as little as you want
build connection and community

All groups are confidential, inclusive and non-judgemental spaces where participant’s experiences are respected, heard and validated.

LGBTIQA+ Peer Support Group

If you are interested in participating, please contact Toni via email to groups@laurelhouse.org.au or call 6431 9711.
