A Welcome to Survivors of Abuse

Abuse can take place whether you are a child, a teenager or an adult. Adults can be married, single or divorced, male or female. Even clergymen, seminary students and clergy-wives can be abused. Abusers can be clergymen, monastics, clergy-wives, or just members of the laity.

Were you abused sexually or otherwise by someone in one of the Orthodox churches, or in a church that calls itself Orthodox? Are you currently being abused by someone?

It is not your fault! You are not alone! We believe you! Contact us
