🥂 A Toast to 10: The Power of a Voice When Sha 🥂 A Toast to 10: The Power of a Voice

When Sharon first came to Brave Step, she wasn’t sure how or if she could share her story. Through connection, growth and courage, she discovered the power of her voice.

Now, that voice isn’t just hers; it’s a catalyst for change. Sharon has spoken out, inspired others to find their own voices, and helped transform lives in ways she never imagined.

Her journey is a reminder: when one voice speaks, it can spark a chorus.

Thriving doesn’t mean avoiding the pain of sexua Thriving doesn’t mean avoiding the pain of sexual trauma. It means having the courage to face it head-on. Recovery requires us to go through the hard parts, not around them. And while the journey isn’t easy, it can lead to strength, resilience and a renewed sense of self.

At Brave Step, we walk alongside survivors as they move from surviving to thriving. Every story of courage reminds us that growth is possible, and thriving is within reach. 💜

When someone we care about experiences sexual viol When someone we care about experiences sexual violence, it impacts us too. Feelings of fear, anger, guilt or helplessness can be heavy to hold on your own.

That’s why we created Loved Ones, a supportive community where friends, family and partners of survivors can come together, share openly and find strength in connection.

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation. By walking alongside others who understand, you’ll discover new ways to support your loved one and yourself.

💜 Our next Loved Ones groups begin soon. Space is limited, reserve your spot today.
