Fire survivor peer support group meets in November

Have you experienced a loss due to a fire? The Social Work Club invites you to join us for a student peer support group over four Sundays in November.

We’ll be meeting in the student lounge of the Meridian Street House (206 N. Meridian St.) from 6 to 7 p.m. Sundays on Nov. 1, 8, 15 and 22. Snacks and drinks will be provided.

This will offer an open and safe space for us to learn from each other, begin to heal together, and share our experiences of living through a fire. The group will be led by senior Ashley Martin, who experienced the loss of her family’s home and community in the California Camp Fire in fall 2018.

As students living away from home while a fire destroyed our communities, we may need a space to process the different feelings and experiences related to losing our homes.

For more information, contact Ashley Martin (amartin18@georgefox.edu).
