			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I received an email today asking about resources, or groups for the spouses of abuse survivors. I agree that dealing with a past that includes child abuse can be very difficult, not just on the survivor, but also on the significant others of survivors, as well as many other close friends and family. It certainly seems like there should be some good support resources for those folks, but I have to admit that I haven&#8217;t really kept up with what is available for these folks.</p>
<p>So what do you guys recommend? Do you recommend a spouse seeking some professional help of their own, or support group, and online email list, etc.? Do you know of any good resources that this person should check out, to get their own support while they try and support their spouse through their healing?</p>
<p>Let me know if you know of any. If not, perhaps we can look at starting something ourselves?</p>
