Changes to Group Chat Structure to Foster Community
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 October 29th
...See more Hi everyone, We have recently noticed a decline in support and participation in our group chats. While we appreciate everyone's contributions, we have found that the low activity level in different group chats has discouraged many members from engaging in conversations. Many enter the quieter chats and when they see it quiet, they tend to leave which is doing no good to offer them much-needed support.  To ensure that our group chats remain vibrant and inclusive support spaces for everyone, we are making a few adjustments: * Group Chats’ Pop-up Status: The following group chats will temporarily return to pop-up status. This means these group chats will be open during scheduled discussions or as per your request. To request these chats to open, these requirements need to be fulfilled:  * At least 3-5 participants are willing to participate in a specific group chat.  * Or, they can become room support or discussion leaders for specific group chats and host at least 2 weekly sessions.  * If you meet either of the requirements, you can inform a community moderator on shift to help you open a group chat for a specific period (let’s say 60 minutes). After completion of discussion, the room will be closed.    * Re-evaluation Period: We will monitor participation and reassess the situation every month.  * The group chats return to popup chats:  * Relationship Support * LGBTQ Support * Listener Community Room Also, we updated the rotation group chat schedule after assessing the participation & support levels. The new rotational schedule is as follows: * Monday & Tuesday: Loneliness Support * Wednesday: Anxiety Support * Thursday & Friday: Relationship Support * Saturday & Sunday: Trauma Support We hope this change will encourage more active support and engagement and make it easier for everyone to stay connected. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.  Thank you.   @heather225

...See more Hey friends, this is fahd. I made friends with a listener called @TrippleL But I can't acces them anymore. No it's not due to blocking, I just got my main account deactivated, and had no ability to create another member teen account, so I got stuck here. She listens to teens. If anyone can help me contact to her, I will appreciate it. Please, if you talked to her as a member, or you're a capable mod or smth, please help me contact with her
I don't know how to help my husband, he suffers from depression and anxiety and I'm trying to recover from my cesarean section.

...See more I have had difficult days and sometimes I lose strength. I do not want to be selfish but sometimes I can not. I do not know how to help my husband. I do everything wrong. He wants me to be his support and give him peace but I always make mistakes and that makes him feel bad and he drinks and tells me the worst rudeness I have ever heard. I came to think that I deserve it, that I am the bad one. Little things that for me are for him trigger an ugly fight. If I do not fix my hair, if I talk about the news, if I went to buy him a meal, if I tell him not to drink but to do exercises, etc. Since my pregnancy I do not sleep. I dealt with his possible suicide, that caused me to have a premature birth. Then in my recovery I could not because first there are his crises and since I do everything wrong, I have no one to turn to because I do not want his family to see him badly, my soul is shattered, he has treated me like the worst woman. I do not know what to do.

Relaunch: Project Group Support Buddy- 3.0
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 October 27th
...See more Hello all,   I hope everyone is doing well. I am excited to announce the relaunch of the Group Support Buddy program. The buddy program is one of the integral aspects of group support leadership, but it didn’t reach its full potential due to one or more challenges. One of the challenges was syncing the availability of the buddy who offers support and guidance and one who seeks guidance. As we are a global team and due to other variables, it isn't easy to sync the availability.  With this in mind, we made a few changes to restructure the program.  How would the new process work?  It involves a support request form that any group support leader can submit with their concerns or challenges related to the group support. Then, one of the experienced group support leaders can reach out to help and guide them through the issue within 24 hours.  Who is a group support leader?  A group support leader is any room supporter, chatroom moderator, host, or discussion leader.  Here is a brief comparison of what new versions have:  Comparison of Old & New Group Support Buddy Program Comparison Points Old Version New Version How to request support? 1-1 through private message Form-based Response Time 48 hours Within 24 hours Who will offer guidance & support Paired with a dedicated big buddy Anyone in the Group supports leadership to ensure coverage and timely support Who can seek support A new group support leader, ex: new room supporter, moderator Both new and existing group support leaders Who can become a buddy One who completed at least 1-2 weeks in their role. At least a month in their role Buddying timeframe First 2 weeks from starting the new role. Anytime in the given role. Questions can come up at any point of being in the role. Here is the group support buddy request (GSBR) form that you can save and bookmark. (Form link) [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfc9tR-XeP0TpqJ4RsTF1x3WsDEbaseBsu1ZJ3tP5bS6l9bvQ/viewform] For ease and quick access, the form will also be available under the Member Group Support section [https://www.7cups.com/listener/training/leadership/fdc3639b1dcb416bb0dc1033dcb0831b/] of the Become a Leader page and under the Resources section [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/] of the Group Support Community. Thank you all group support leaders for going above and beyond in their efforts to support the community in the group support chats. Let’s continue to support each other and in our roles to learn and grow together.  If you have any questions, please feel free to message Suryansh [http://7cups.com/@Suryansh]or me aka (ASilentObserver [http://7cups.com/@ASilentobserver])

...See more Hello everyone, As you all know in Nov 2019, we introduced certain criteria to access group chatrooms. We badge-locked group chatrooms due to safety reasons and to ensure a supportive and friendly environment for the community members. Over two years, group chats [https://www.7cups.com/connect/groupChatrooms.php] went through a lot of changes and improvements. We are grateful to all the members, listeners, and group support leaders who helped to maintain and sustain the safety and support levels and went above and beyond to increase them. Thank you to everyone. I am excited to share that accessing rooms will be easier than ever now. We are making changes to the criteria to access rooms.

...See more I hope everyone is having a lovely relaxing Sunday and preparing for the week ahead. It is time for us to take a look at our very first Hosting Hero!  To announce our very first Hero Host, it seems perfectly fitting that we begin with highlighting and recognising one of our most dedicated facilitators who has offered their time, patience and kindness since Nov 2022 with an amazing log of 290 sessions!   It came as no surprise to me that CalmRosebud received many nominations in our first week of launching our new Hero Hosts. Many Sharing Circle Members, Listeners and hosts look up to you and appreciate all that you do. During your sessions, you are always seen giving your time and compassion to support members and ensure the smooth running of the room. You are always welcoming and friendly and provide everyone with a fair opportunity to join the queue and let their voice be heard. You have always pushed yourself to be the best host you can be and your latest post examining the therapeutic benefits of group support and Sharing Circles has been deeply insightful.   Above all, Rose lets her brilliant sense of humour and amazing personality shine through week in, week out and always stays down to Earth.
