Sexual violence can impact every part of a survivor's life.
Every survivor's experience is different. Some impacts may be immediate, while others may emerge over time. There is no "right" way to respond to trauma, and no timeline for healing.
Understanding the wide-ranging effects of sexual violence helps us replace judgment with compassion and support survivors with the care and respect they deserve.
If you or someone you know has experienced sexual violence, support is available. SAFE San Juans is here to listen, believe, and support survivors wherever they are in their journey.
