| Our support
groups are facilitated by volunteer
therapists and trained
professionals. There are no fixed
fees for most support groups. We do
encourage group members to give
donations for their participation in
these groups. These donations help
pay for therapy provided to clients
without income. A fee is sometimes
charged for groups that have a fixed
agenda and psycho-educational
format. We call these "Therapy
Groups", whereas the other groups
are "Peer Support". No one is turned
away because of inability to pay a
fee. Also refer to our
Group Norms and Agreements for
more information about support
groups. |

The Pride Center.
