Silence: Personal Safety


I want to also add on the subject of survivors who have kept their abuse silent is the fact that in some countries it is simply not safe to disclose this information. For any of you who might live in a society where it is not safe to come forward or seek support with others who understand…you are not alone. We won’t let you suffer in silence. 
The NAF Project is a message of support, but it is also a voice for people who cannot speak up for themselves. We are here to stand up for you and for your right to be accepted for who you are no matter what has happened to you. 
Please, stay strong and be kind to yourself. It is not your fault that the world is a broken place. Someday, hopefully soon, the stigma that surrounds sexual assault and abuse will no longer silence or suppress survivors. <3. Be safe.
