Sexual violence is not just a personal tragedy. It Sexual violence is not just a personal tragedy. It’s a public cost we all bear.

πŸ“Š The numbers are staggering:
- $122,461 = the lifetime cost per survivor (medical care, justice system, lost productivity).
- $3.1 trillion = the total U.S. cost for all survivors.
- Survivors lose $5K–$15K in wages each year due to trauma.
- 70% of survivors never receive the mental health support they need.

Behind every statistic is a life forever changed.

πŸ‘‰ One Brave Thing you can do today: Commit to funding prevention and support. Even a small monthly gift helps close the gap for survivors who deserve recovery and hope.

As we get ready to celebrate more than a decade of impact, we’re looking back with gratitude at the partners and moments that have shaped Brave Step’s journey.

In 2023, we were honored to gather with our long-standing partner, @matthewsumc, a community that has walked alongside Brave Step and our mission for years. During this special event, Board President @court_ml  and Brave Step Ambassador @supa_sharon shared powerful words about hope, recovery and the transformative work happening through Brave Step.

πŸ’™ Partnerships like this remind us that lasting change is built together, through community, compassion and shared commitment.

Here’s to continuing this incredible journey and building an even brighter future. πŸ₯‚
