Support Groups & Informational Meetings
MUA offers several in-person and virtual meetings a week. Our “general” meetings are facilitated by leading members of the organization who have taken MUA's facilitation training, and might consist of support and healing or informational presentations. The topics of our meetings are variable and cover mental health, stress, domestic violence, child development, community issues, political context, as well as providing space for participants to share their own experiences.
