Women Healing From Codependency

A safe space for women affected by addiction.

Details

The JACS Women Healing From Codependency Group aims to provide a safe and supportive environment for any woman who is concerned about a loved one’s addiction. The weekly meeting utilizes an interactive group format where participants are encouraged to share, check-in, and address any concerns they may have.

Participants will learn relevant topics related to addiction, such as codependency, boundaries, guilt and shame, and self-care. The emphasis of the group is support. Every meeting ensures a welcoming and therapeutic space for participants to share, offer feedback, and connect with each other through vulnerability and honesty.

This women’s support group runs every Tuesday evening from 8:00 -9:00 pm on Zoom, and there is no cost to attend. For more information, please email groups@jacstoronto.org.

Testimonials

Since opening in 2000, we’ve helped more than 10,000 families who have struggles with addiction.

It’s heartwarming to see the work JACS does in our community up close. I watched as their professionals educated community members on addiction triggers and mental health obstacles, which ensured those in the audience they were not alone in their daily struggles. Never have I been able to see an organization’s impact so clearly in such a short period of time.

After doing drugs for over 42 years I had had enough and desperately wanted to stop ! Now 3 years clean I still attend meetings at JACS. If I would have known that recovery is this good I would have done it a long time ago.

JACS Client

I have become calmer and able to face challenges easier. During these COVID lockdowns and look to the meditation classes as the highlight of my day!

Client

I had long know I was a sex addict and didn’t know where to turn. My life had been unmanageable and I was not able to control my addiction. The first couple of COVID months were extremely isolating and hard for me. Finding distractions and projects was not a solution to my addiction. JACS is offering fellowship, support, structure, counselling, a safe open honest space and hope. I am grateful for the support and opportunity JACS offers.
