Join us in spreading awareness about sexual assault during the month of April by anonymously submitting your Living as a Survivor story. We know there are a lot of you out there surviving privately who are not able to publicly come forward as a survivor. So many of you will be seeing all the sexual assault awareness efforts this month and won’t feel like you can participate. You may even feel self-conscious about commenting or liking a social media post about sexual assault awareness for fear that people will be suspicious. Let us be your Voice. Let us tell your story. Spread your story to others who may need a bit of strength, hope, and inspiration this month.
We want to hear and share your story of healing – how you went from a victim to a survivor, how you were able to trust again, your coping skills, what you do for self-care. On the last day of April we will share these stories on our social media platforms, creating a digital community of survivors. Your story can be a message of healing. Your story will help other survivors. Let’s make sure that on this one day – April 30th – no survivor feels alone.
