Peer Support Space: Peer-Led Space for Adult Survivors of the Family Policing System

This group is hosted by Peer Support Space.

Join us every 2nd and 4th Thursday for a nonclinical, peer-led space facilitated by survivors of the family policing system for fellow survivors (18+). This is a confidential, affirming and peer led gathering for those who survived the family policing system as children (i.e. adoptees / survivors of adoption / survivors of child trafficking, foster kids / institutionalized, displaced kids / survivors of the foster or “foster” system, children in group homes / survivors of state-sanctioned captivity, survivors of indigenous boarding schools /cultural genocide /colonial indoctrination, survivors of ICE detention centers / detained youth / incarcerated minors / children of forced separation etc.) This is an abolitionist centered space. We exist to lower feelings of isolation and to build a support system with other survivors. We uplift that the family policing system is a violent, oppressive, racist, carceral system and this space is centered around those who have survived it. That being stated, we do not allow any current or striving to be police or family police into the space. Join us as we build community and support one another, and hold space for each other to talk about our experience in an affirming space. This resource is made possible by a partnership with Peer Support Space
