MESSAGE FROMTHE FOUNDER
Please be united.
We are survivors.
We are not alone.

No one on this earth has any right to judge us, or any other fellow human being.
So please turn the tables stand up speak out, be united with other survivors, and be strong.
If you endured any dreadful ordeal in your childhood, and you survived you are tough, so keep up the fight you are worth it.

When using this site you agree to follow rules , and have agreed to privacy as stated below.For further information regarding privacy see privacy link at the bottom of the page.
Keeping a secret can be a very lonely responsibility. As survivors of childhood sexual abuse we were taught to keep the secrets of our trauma. Sometimes we kept the secret because we were afraid of the consequences, and sometimes we kept the secret because we thought we shared a special relationship with our abuser. For whatever reason; quietly and in solitude we endured shame and confusion, unaware that countless other children were bearing the same burden as we were.
Today you are not alone. Today you will be counted as one of many who have chosen to make a difference by inspiring others through your courage to break the silence.
Only survivors throughout the world can change the below accepted statement:
"The taboo against talking about incest is stronger than the taboo against doing it."
- Maria Sauzier, M.D.
Incest refers to any sexual activity between closely related people or people a child loves and trusts, that is illegal or socially taboo.
Peace & Love is what waits for us.We all deserve it !!
