This group provides an additional support system for women, primarily stay –at-home mothers/wives, coping with trauma and isolation in their new communities.

The women meet on Thursday afternoons at the IWS office and have the opportunity to socialize, ‘debrief” and relieve the communal living styles in their countries of birth, hence drawing strength from one another. They also have the opportunity to gain new knowledge on such topics as: ESL, nutrition, parenting, beauty tips, arts/crafts, community resources; participate in games and visits to some fun places within the city.

Free child minding services and transportation are provided for the participants.
