AN AID FOR FAMILY PEOPLE OF THOSE WHO SUFFER OR PERFORM VIOLENCE

Have you come to know that a person who is your friend, colleague, classmate, neighbor or even member of your family is subjected to or acts of violence (physical, psychological)?

Ciao Table offers Self-Help Groups   with professional accompaniment.

IN THE FACE OF VIOLENCE NO ONE SHOULD FEEL ALONE, POWERLESS OR UNFIT.

We look forward to your participation: we invite you to announce your interest by communicating your telephone number and the times in which you are available for a preliminary exchange of information to the email address info@ciaotable.org.

You can choose anonymity. In any case, confidentiality is guaranteed.

The meetings will be held starting from January 2023 and for all 2023 in Lugano and/or Bellinzona, in the evening.

Participation is free.

>A self-help group is made up of people who are facing similar life problems and wish to meet periodically to exchange experiences and to offer each other not only moral but also practical support.

>It is a solidarity meeting to break the isolation, to exchange information and indications, with the intention of rediscovering one's own resources: for oneself, but also for the community.

>Members of the group undertake not to disclose externally what is shared in the meetings and to maintain anonymity on the identity of the participants.

>Professionals with experience in cases of interpersonal violence will always be present.

>Scientific studies demonstrate the effectiveness of self-help groups in many areas.
