Fundraiser

NY, NY

Based on experience

Our client provides a safe space for survivors of sexual abuse to support one another in the aftermath of trauma. Providing bi-weekly support groups, survivors find comfort and growth from the peer support and professional facilitators. In groups, survivors give each other the strength and safety to overcome their shame and limiting beliefs. The powerful dynamic of sharing, communicating, and supporting one another builds confidence, self-worth, and essential life skills. Through the group, valuable lessons, skills, insight, and comfort is exchanged as each member learns and gives to one another. The friendships and support built extend beyond group sessions providing survivors with a second family. For the often-isolated survivor, our client is an understanding, safe space for them to explore and heal from the devastating effects of sexual abuse.
