    Groups can effect change in 3 main ways: 1) Being in a group helps people develop skills like communication, relationship building, and asserting themselves that can be used outside the group. 2) People in similar life situations can support each other and increase feelings of self-worth. 3) Service groups aim to empower members by increasing their self-worth and ability to constructively use power through interactions with peers and social workers.

    How groups effect change? Being in groups is a normal part of our lives and it help us develops our skills in working
    with others in the group, for example in communicating, relationship-building and asserting oneself, which can be
    transferred to our lives outside. Also, people with similar life experiences, situations and problems can be a source of
    support to each other. Service users who are seen alone can, of course, develop this sense of acceptance from their
    interaction with their social worker, but having the acceptance and respect of a number of their peers can be a much
    more powerful experience and greatly increase feelings of self-worth. Groups can be empowering in the sense of an
    increasing feeling of self-worth and a growing ability to feel and use power in constructive ways, should be an
    integral part of the members’ experience of the group.
