New Groups on the Network

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Over at the Survivor Network, folks are finally starting to get the hang of the Groups feature. We’ve had a couple of new ones added, the first for those of the Christian Faith to talk about how their faith plays a role in their healing, and the second a place to discuss the portrayal of survivors in TV and movies.

We’re also up to 246 members, with a lot of the new folks getting involved and starting a bunch of new discussions. Makes me glad to see them feeling comfortable and part of the community. If you haven’t joined and checked it out yet, what are you waiting for? 🙂

    Reading this article about how Andy Murray survived the Dunblane school shooting got me thinking about childhood abuse survivors and the people who are constantly telling us that abused kids are doomed to a lifetime of pain. While it’s true that Andy Murray was not a victim of abuse, I don’t believe there’s any question…

    I saw this post over at Jewish Survivors of Sexual Violence Speak Out about the lasting effects of sexual abuse on boys as they grow into adulthood. It’s stuff we don’t hear often when we hear about boys being abused, but it’s information that needs to be out there. Men who are living with a…
