Support Groups
Tandem is a satellite location of TreeHouse Hope which provides grace-based programs and environments for teens. Specifically, this curriculum helps teens learn to believe in their God-given value and worth, their capabilities, and their potential. Whether through mentorship, support groups, or off-site activities, we create safe environments where teens can be themselves and have fun.
Types of Support Groups
1
Support Group
Support Group is a time when teens give voice to the struggles they’re facing and talk about what’s really going on in their lives. We start by hanging out, follow that with group time and a small lesson, then break into smaller support groups.
During these smaller support groups, teens check in with their group by saying their name, rating how their week is going, and naming at least three emotions they’ve felt over the past week. If they want to dive deeper into what caused those emotions, they’re given time to share with the group. This creates a space where teens feel safe sharing what’s going on in their lives and receive support from peers and adult leaders.
