What to Expect In This Online Mental Health Support Group Community
The group facilitator will admit you into the group, giving a few minutes for everyone to join. The facilitator will then walk through the guidelines to ensure a safe and supportive environment. New members are encouraged to utilize Zoom emojis so the online community can welcome them. Each discussion is prompted with a quote or topic, though the conversation is fluid and participants can raise their hand to share. Most people have their cameras on, and being able to see all participants
is strongly encouraged to foster community and connection. Each meeting is 30 minutes long.
