Growing Together is an open group for women and their primary-school aged children who have experienced domestic and family violence.

The focus of the group will be to provide supported opportunities to strengthen the mother-child relationship after violence.  The sessions will be centred around play, arts and crafts, music, and physical activities which promote health and wellbeing for participants, and will enhance the connection between mothers and their children.

A healthy afternoon tea will be provided.

Siblings are welcome to attend.

This group is facilitated by DVCS Child & Family Practitioners.
