You're Not Alone

Child sexual abuse is a type of trauma that is typically not discussed or processed until later in life when survivors are adults. As we work to find impactful methods of helping, we want anyone to be able to work on their process of healing. For that reason, we have worked to establish a list of resources that contains information across our home state (Idaho) and nationwide. This list is not exhaustive but we will continue to ensure that any reputable and helpful sources of assistance are added to it. Please let us know if this does not contain something you are looking for contact us.
