“Sharing my story allowed me to feel like I had a voice that I didn’t have before. I had the freedom to choose when and who I shared it with.”

“I believe that Our Wave provides a vital platform for survivors to find collective voice safely and securely. We will never find a way to end sexual harm until we can talk about it and learn from one another. Talking about the violence in our lives can be a way to find healing and hope.”

“If I had known when I was a 20-year old girl that there was a place where I could go to talk about my experience. A place where I could meet a warm and accepting community to share this stuff with would have made an enormous difference. It can really remove the pain and reconnect you to people again after feeling isolated for so long.”

Survivor communities make a difference.

When survivors share their experiences and connect with others, it creates a ripple effect of validation and support. As more survivors find the courage to speak their truths, these ripples grow into waves of change, eroding the silence and stigma that too often isolate survivors.
