About Survivors Supporting Survivors in the Movement:
These gatherings will give support, visibility, and voice to people working within the movement who have a lived experience of surviving sexual harm.
For far too long there has been an unspoken understanding within the movement that in order to work most effectively and maintain professional standards we must deny or minimize our identity as a survivor. This only serves to further reinforce the stigma and shame associated with sexual harm that we are working so hard to change.
Facilitated by Anika Sterling Florez, our quarterly gathering of survivor service providers will give us a space to discuss many issues specific to survivors working in the movement in order to support the work of helping other survivors.
