Connections
Connections is an open therapy group offered by CAPS to support students in practicing the social skills necessary to develop meaningful relationships. This group is intended for students who have not yet found a sense of belonging at SJU or who struggle with social anxiety. The group will meet weekly on Thursdays at 3:30pm in the CAPS office within Sister Thea Bowman Hall. Each group meeting will consist of ice breakers and both group and partner exercises focused on conversation initiation and social engagement, as well as reflections on the experience of making new friends. Students can attend one time or come every week– a commitment to weekly attendance is not required.
