Support Groups
The Coalition provides specialized spaces such as the Community Healing (virtual) groups, designed for those negatively impacted by the family policing system. These virtual groups, facilitated by therapeutic providers and individuals with lived experience, aim to help participants understand system trauma and develop a supportive healing community.
For those experiencing deep personal loss, our Phantom (Parents) Grief Therapeutic Groups cater to biological parents who have had their parental rights terminated by dependency and neglect courts. Additionally, the Phantom (Parents & Kinship) Grief Therapeutic Groups support a broader range of family members, including grandparents, aunts, uncles, siblings, cousins, nieces, and nephews.
Our Family Reunification Therapeutic Group is tailored for families reunified after involvement with the family policing system. This group focuses on rebuilding family trust, cohesiveness and facilitating healing. These initiatives are part of our commitment to fostering recovery and strengthening familial bonds within the community.
