๐Ÿฅ‚ Toast to 10 | Flashback to 2017 In 2017, Bra ๐Ÿฅ‚ Toast to 10 | Flashback to 2017

In 2017, Brave Step joined reporter @s.gracedelia and @wfae for the powerful "She Says" series, a year-long investigation into the case of โ€œLinda,โ€ a Charlotte-area woman who was sexually assaulted by a stranger and was searching for answers.

Brave Step was honored to contribute advocacy insight to this award-winning series, which shed light on the deeply personal, often frustrating realities survivors face when navigating systems meant to protect them.

"She Says" reminds us that justice isnโ€™t always swift, and recovery is rarely linear.
