Support Groups
In December 2011, a group of former Jehovah's Witnesses in Indiana began a support and information service reaching out to help those who were abused as children by members of Jehovah's Witnesses. The group initiated an information campaign calling for enforcement of "No Trespassing" signs and holding Jehovah's Witnesses accountable for trespass, as a result of child abuse allegations that have been made in Indiana.

Famous quotes containing the words support and/or groups:
“They [parents] can help the children work out schedules for homework, play, and television that minimize the conflicts involved in what to do first. They can offer moral support and encouragement to persist, to try again, to struggle for understanding and mastery. And they can share a child’s pleasure in mastery and accomplishment. But they must not do the job for the children.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
“Writers and politicians are natural rivals. Both groups try to make the world in their own images; they fight for the same territory.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
