It's time to talk about it....


1 out of 4 girls, and 1 out of 6 boys will experience some form of sexual abuse in their lifetime before they reach the age of 18.*

Approximately 
three quarters of reported cases of child sexual abuse are committed by family members or other 
individuals who are considered part of the victim’s “circle of trust."**

There are over 39 million survivors of sexual abuse in America.***

Somewhere between 2/3 and ninety percent of sexual abuse victims never tell...***

Childhood sexual abuse can affect anybody, at anytime, anywhere.  We at Moving4ward are here to support you as you move through the healing process. We understand that speaking up about sexual abuse can be difficult, but know that you are not alone.  Breaking the silence is the first step to bringing awareness of sexual abuse.  YOUR VOICE HAS A RIGHT TO BE HEARD!!

SO IF THE SON SETS YOU FREE, YOU WILL BE FREE INDEED. - JOHN 8:36
