MEET OUR FACILITATORS 


“​Recovery Works—When You Work”

Gwendolyn Jones

Lead Facilitator


With a corporate background in Training-Methods & Procedures, I began facilitating my first Shelter from the Storm© support group in September 2008.


For six years (2008-2014) I was the lead facilitator at my local church and was dedicated in facilitating three support groups per week.


Since sexual violence is a part of my personal history I have the insight, compassion, understanding, knowledge of its impact and the process of recovery to overcome the effects of sexual abuse.


I have invested significant time and energy in continuing to educate myself by taking advantage of training opportunities, certifications, webinars and advocacy training to become an effective facilitator.
