Support groups serve many purposes, allowing members the opportunity to share their common experiences, find coping strategies, and learn together.
They can reduce stress and anxiety, decrease feelings of isolation, and provide empowerment and hope.[1]
Common support group types include chronic illness, crisis, personal growth, family, and grief support groups.[2] However, you can create a support group for any purpose you think would benefit from meeting in a group, such as educational support.
The best support group names should have an inspiring tone to reflect the group’s purpose.

How to Create a Good Support Group Name
As noted above, the best support group names are inspiring and hopeful, giving long-time and new members they sense that they are welcome and that the group will help them.
We created our list by considering the general purpose of support groups and how they benefit their members.
If you’d like to create your own unique name rather than use one on our list, keep the following tips in mind:
Choose your words carefully.
Support groups often exist to help people through times of crisis and loss.
While some of your group’s members might have a morbid sense of humor and the ability to find dark comedy in their situation, you usually won’t want to use a snarky or sarcastic name for your support group.
It’s better to choose words like “grace,” “hope,” “strength,” “courage,” and “healing” for your group name.
Be careful with your selections, and maybe run your ideas past a few friends or group members to be sure they won’t seem off-putting or unwelcoming.
Consider the group’s focus.
Does your support group focus on grief, caregivers, habit-changing accountability, or another specific type of support? You might want to refer to this in your group name.
This will make the purpose of your group clear to members, and make it easier for new members to find.
However, be sure that the name remains positive in tone in order to uplift the group’s members.
