Nan VCS, nou konprann enpòtans pou pale dirèkteman ak moun ki ka gen eksperyans ak emosyon menm jan avè w. Gwoup Sipò yo ba w yon espas pou w santi w an sekirite epi vilnerab. Ou ka jwenn fòs nan pataje istwa w, oswa nan tande istwa lòt moun. Nan Gwoup Sipò nou yo, yo pataje enfòmasyon serye ak fyab ki ede tout manm gwoup nou yo nan sitiyasyon aktyèl yo a.
Nou mete ajou regilyèman ofrann gwoup sipò nou yo, kidonk tcheke souvan si ou pa jwenn sa w ap chèche a, oubyen rele nou pou fè nou konnen kijan nou ka la pou ou.
Gwoup Sipò pou Moun k ap Bay Swen
Gwoup Sipò pou Moun Kap Bay Swen VCS yo bay resous pou moun k ap bay swen yon lòt granmoun. Gwoup la se yon espas an sekirite pou pataje konsèy, resous ak estrateji ak lòt moun ki nan menm wòl la, epi tou pou pale ouvètman sou eksperyans ou yo.
Kounye a, gwoup la ap fonksyone yon sèl fwa pa semèn, men tcheke regilyèman paske yo ajoute nouvo gwoup regilyèman. Gwoup la ap fèt chak mèkredi soti 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM nan biwo VCS la nan New City, epi li gratis pou patisipe!

Antre Fanm
Entre Mujeres, (ki vle di "ant fanm") se yon pwogram sèvis kominotè pou ofri fanm panyòl yo yon espas kote yo ka pataje epi aprann an kominote avèk lòt fanm. Nan gwoup sa a, fanm yo diskite sou sijè enterè ki gen rapò ak sante mantal ak parantaj, epi pafwa nou resevwa oratè envite pou pataje enfòmasyon enpòtan sou sèvis yo.
Kounye a, nou gen yon gwoup ki reyini yon fwa pa semèn, chak Jedi, soti 9:00 AM pou rive 10:15 AM nan Bibliyotèk Piblik Spring Valley la. Antre nan Entre Mujeres gratis!

My Child is School Avoidant
This group setting allows parents of school-avoidant children to speak about their parenting experiences and the difficulty of helping their children return to school. Led by Monica Mandell (LMSW, PhD), an expert in handling school-avoidance, and Darla Salmon (MFT), an expert in family therapy, group members explore all aspects of their experience. The students are included in the program as well, with 2 sessions built in for students to speak with other school-avoidant children to find solidarity and empowerment to return to school.
Eligibility: Any family who works with Monica Mandell through the Beth Kipperman Student Advocacy Program at VCS is eligible for this group. Families with students from any school in Rockland or Westchester are eligible. Learn more about the Student Advocacy Program at VCS.
We meet once per week, for 1 hour. Currently, it is run only in English, though a Spanish group can be created if there is interest.
Pricing: There is a small fee for joining this group. For more information, please contact Monica Mandell at mmandell@vcs-inc.org
