'Since 2000 the Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men & Women (DAHMW) has been offering supportive services to abuse survivors through its nationally available toll-free helpline.

For the first time ever male survivors of domestic abuse will now have available to them a peer led, 12-week support group that they may attend right from home.

This support group will give participants an opportunity to understand the effects of abuse on themselves and their children, explore what healthy intimate relationships look like, and help them toachieve personal growth in all areas of their life.
...
Participants will use virtual cameras and tune in online at scheduled times once a week for 12 weeks.

Participants must have access to a computer and high-speed Internet service.

DAHMW will reimburse participant for the web camera if they need to buy one.'
