Support Groups
It’s common to feel isolated, silenced, and rejected when you have experienced harm in a place that was meant to provide safety. We grieve with you over what was done in God’s name, in His house, and by those who claim to be called to their positions.
We have a calling, too.
We are called to courage.
Called to Courage Support Groups are spaces where you can connect with others who have experienced deep pain in a church. All support groups are confidential.

One-on-One Support
One-on-one support is coming in early 2026. Your privacy is important to us and all one-on-one support is completely confidential.*
Here are some ideas we are developing.
Individual support calls - Tell your story without risk of being dismissed, judged, or ridiculed. We know what it’s like to finally be heard.
Trauma Informed Coaching - Work closely with a trauma trained coach who will guide you through layers of understanding and healing to process your experiences and emotions
Empowerment calls - If you’re unsure how to proceed with meeting your pastor or if you feel intimidated and sick at the thought of such a thing, this call is for you.
*Within the limitations allowable by law.
Professional Referrals List
There are times that professional support is the best or only option and we are adamant about connecting individuals and families to the most appropriate level of support. We are actively gathering names and contact information for those in the mental health and legal professions and hope to have an initial list of professionals available to you in early 2026.
Are you a professional who is interested and qualified in helping individuals and families who have been harmed or abused in the church? If so, please complete the appropriate form below and we will be in touch soon.
Resources
Trying to find helpful resources can feel like wandering through the wilderness and it is difficult to know who to trust.
We are working hard to simplify that for you by curating a list of resources that have been adequately vetted and intentionally selected by the Called to Courage Board of Directors.
Our Resources page currently has a list of books that will help you get started on your journey of understanding what happened to you.
More resources are coming soon!
