Welcome to Launching Point!    

We are home to Beyond Bandages, the 1st and only self-injury support group in NJ! Our next meeting is:

• Thursday, May 31 @ 7:00pm

Whether are visiting our site on purpose or by accident, we are glad you did! It is a new day of a new year...many resolutions are made at the kick off of a new year. Perhaps you are thinking about "getting it together" or finally dealing with the death of a loved one. Well, a resolution to a new year is great, but without action, a resolution is just empty words!

It can be challenging to "change your behaivor patterns" or "approach the road to recovery", so when you have experiences that are too hard to put into words, it helps when someone can identify with them without needing you to explain, which opens the door to feeling more hopeful and less isolated. Compassion, understanding, and patience, is a few of the first things you will experience at Launching Point!

You may think "Nobody understands". "Nobody knows what I've gone through". "They don't know the pain, if they did, they'd understand". So, you put up a wall; a really thick one. No matter what people do or say to us, you just let it roll off your back. That kind of thinking stops here!

Think It. Say It. See It. Believe It. Live It.

• Change seems impossible at times, but remember: "I'm Possible" comes from ImPossible. Once you bring a thought to mind, speak it out by bringing voice to it, begin to see the change, then go from seeing to believing, where you then begin to live that out! 

At Launching Point, we have a variety of supportive groups that will not only help you with every day living, but work on the "inner you" and begin a pathy of healthy thinking.

• We offer a self-injury support group for those struggling with self-inflicted violence.
• We have a 12-step recovery program for those overcoming addictions, issues, and emotional hurts.
• We provide a variety of self-injury literature and resources, support, and a support group for those that lost a loved one to suicide.
• We reach out to those in the community and have a great group of people, wonderful leaders, and caring facilitators!

We offer a safe place to share, leaders who have experienced similar hurts, and opportunities for accountability partners.
