University Daily Kansan, September 30, 1980 Page 7 Programs lend helping hands By KATHY BRUSSELL Staff Reporter "Compulsive, Eating," "Feminist Spirituality" and "The New Maleness" may be the titles of some of the student groups to be formed tonight at a Helping Ourselves meeting in the Kansas Union. The purpose of the Helping Ourselves program is to encourage the formation of support groups that deal with women's and men's issues, according to Barbara Ballard, director of the University Resource Center, one of the program's sponsors. "The primary focus of the program is women, but Helping Ourselfs is also an opportunity for men to get together and work to better understand women's issues or to discuss their relationships with women," she said. The meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the Pine Room. A panel of speakers will present information on how to organize and lead support groups. The members of the audience then will divide into two on the basis of their interests, Ballard. Other suggested group topics include male-female relationships, lesbian support, bisexual support, ending and art and consciousness raising. BALLARD SAID EACH group would be responsible for determining its own goals and format. Group members will decide when and where to meet, how often to meet and whether to have a specific leader, she said. A recorder from each group will be asked to submit a summary of the group's activities to the Resource Center after the group has disbanded, and we will keep a file on what type of groups were formed and how long they met. ACCORDING TO Adrienne Christiansen, president of the Commission on the Status of Women, women's support groups were active in the early 1970s, but have since become less prominent. "There's a whole new bunch of women who haven't had the experience of being in a support group," she said. "Helping Ourselfs was started last week." Christiansan said she was in a consciousness raising group of about 10 year in answer to those women interested in being part of a group." THE GROUP DEALT with both personal and political issues and convinced many of its members to join other campus women's groups, she Men's Coalition is an organizational group that promotes "the emotional and cognitive development of men," he said. John Macchietto, a member of Men's Coalition, said he hoped the meeting would include men who were interested in joining support groups. Other groups sponsoring the program are Women's Coalition, Women's Studies, KU-Y and the KU Information Center.
