💜 Behind the Brave | It Starts With Us Ending 💜 Behind the Brave | It Starts With Us

Ending sexual violence isn’t just a hope. It’s a collective responsibility. It requires education, prevention, survivor care and a community willing to say not on our watch.

We’re reminded that eliminating sexual violence begins with the choices we make today: how we support, how we speak up, and how we invest in change.

Together, we can build a safer future. One step, one voice, one brave act at a time. 💙

🌟 Voices of Change Spotlight: Judith Sutton 🌟
 
We are proud to feature Judith Sutton, author, advocate and Brave Step ally. Judith bravely shared her journey of trauma and healing in her book, Sister and Me, offering hope and inspiration to survivors everywhere.

Her courage to speak her truth reminds us of the power of storytelling in the journey toward recovery. 💙
 
For those interested, we were able to snag a few copies of Sister and Me. Email info@bravestep.org to request your copy and dive into Judith’s incredible story.

💙 Your Gift Today. Prevention Tomorrow. Every 💙 Your Gift Today. Prevention Tomorrow.

Every survivor we meet carries a story, not just of harm but of strength, hope and a future they still want to believe in. And every loved one who walks beside them is trying to figure out how to help, how to listen, how to walk with them.

This is why Brave Step exists.
To make sure no one sits with trauma alone.
To give families tools to support each other.
To educate communities so fewer people are ever harmed in the first place.

When you give, you’re not just supporting one program or one moment.

You’re investing in prevention, in recovery and in the kind of community where sexual violence is less likely to occur because people are informed, empowered, connected and cared for.

Your gift today can change someone’s tomorrow. And that’s how prevention truly begins. 💙
