Men's Virtual Chapter, Recovering from Religion Support Group

*NOTE: This meeting is solely for individuals who identify as male.

The Recovering from Religion MEN'S VIRTUAL chapter support group will meet the 1st Saturday of each month @ 10am Central Time (USA), unless the date falls on a holiday. Attendees are welcome to share, and may also decide to remain anonymous if they so choose.

The primary focus of a Recovering From Religion support group is to provide ongoing peer support to individuals as they let go of their religious beliefs. This transitional period is an ongoing process that can result in a range of emotions, as well as a ripple effect of consequences throughout an individual’s life. As such the support meetings are safe and anonymous places to express these doubts, fears, and experiences without biased feedback or proselytizing.

These groups are free, small group style meetings. No professional therapist is present, group leaders are volunteers trained in peer support. You are not required to give your real name or show your face on camera. You will be invited, but not required to talk about yourself and your experiences.

Be aware that trolls sometimes appear. Your group leader will make every effort to eject anyone behaving badly as quickly as possible.
