About Us

Support Groups Kosova (SGK) was founded in 2021 by Rita Zhubi, Nol Musa, and Adhuresa Sylejmani, who shared a vision to make emotional support accessible, collective, and stigma-free. The idea grew from lived experience and an understanding that Kosovo’s mental health services were expensive, urban-centered, and limited to one-on-one therapy. The first SGK groups — for anxiety and depression, LGBTQ+ support, and sexual harassment survivors — were created entirely through self-funding and volunteer effort. Today SGK expands its work with collaborators such as QIPS and donors like CDF and the Embassy of Sweden, relaunching the Anxiety Support Group and preparing new groups for menopause and activism burnout.
