Alternative Horizons announces groups

Alternative Horizons will offer a free six-week women’s group for those who would like to heal the pain of being in an abusive relationship. The group will meet from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesdays beginning June 16.

Participants will build better communication skills; use the art for self-exploration; learn skills to move beyond trauma; reclaim their inner self and create better boundaries.

Alternative Horizons also will offer a free six-week group this summer for girls who will be in sixth or seventh grade next year. This group will cover issues such as self-esteem, body image, healthy relationships, assertiveness, diversity, communication and more. The group will meet from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Mondays.
