Event Details
Together We Can: Trauma Survivors Support Group provides peer support for trauma survivors and their families who may be having difficulty coping with recovery or just want to find strength in others who are walking in the same shoes. These support groups are facilitated by VCU Health and VCU team members in conjunction with the Trauma Survivors Network. We encourage you to take this time for yourself and be supportive of fellow trauma survivors who may be in different places in their healing journey.
If you have any questions or would like additional information about the Trauma Survivors Network and the resources available to you, please call (804) 828-6426 and leave a message with your phone number, and one of our team members will return your call.
