Welcome to Sexual Assault Survivors Support Group

This discussion thread is pinned and locked. It is closed to new replies.

This group is intended to provide support and a judgement-free area to men and women whose lives have been impacted by sexual assault, rape or partner violence. This is a place to share our stories and come together as a community to support others in their journey towards healing.

We recognize that sexual assault affects people across gender and sexual orientation lines. Since sexual assault does not discriminate, this group does not discriminate either. All genders and orientations are welcome here.

This group is intended as a safe place for victims to post. Victims of sexual assault can be coping with potentially devastating emotional issues. This is not a place for personal attacks or flames; it is a place for support. Attacks will not be welcomed, and may result in the attacker being blocked from the group. Think before you post, and be compassionate always.

Group members are advised to use caution when posting images, writings or information that can be traced back to their real identities.

This is not intended to be a substitute for professional help or counseling. If you have been assaulted and need immediate help, we would encourage you to contact the police, your local rape crisis center or other local authorities. Please consult the list of crisis resources if you are in need of real-life counseling or assistance.

If you have any questions please contact one of the hosts through the About This Group link on the main page.
