Stigma: A Family Support Group
What is it?
Stigma is a family support group for anyone who is struggling, or has struggled, with an addicted family member. It is a service aimed at helping family members receive support in their own process by providing resources, education and community in a safe space.
What is the goal?
The goal is for families to help other families in their journey with addiction. We want participants to come away with a better understanding of the disease, a bond with an understanding community and a toolkit to better handle stressors that arise from having a family member battling addiction.
Where is it?
65 Gadsden Street, Charleston SC, 29401 OR On Zoom!

Topic discussion and monthly educational lectures
While most people think first of the definition meaning a perception of disgrace, a stigma is also the center of a flower that receives pollination and allows the flower to flourish. We see the family unit as the “stigma” to a person’s recovery process. When the stigma is pollinated the flower can blossom.
