I recently facilitated a workshop at SERDC (Southeast Resource Development Council Corp) on the treatment, intervention and recovery from sexual trauma, which was very well received by the organizers and the attendees. 


We would like to offer similar training to your agency and communities that might be interested.

Who is this training for?


The workshop is for everyone, including parents, so they can learn to support and become an ally for their children/teenagers who are survivors of sexual abuse. 



The workshop is for you : 

  • If you work with survivors of sexual abuse 
  • If you are a survivor 
  • If you have a family member who is a survivor of sexual abuse
