Excerpt of S.E. Smith Article Printed With Permission


WHAT TO DO WHEN SOMEONE APPROACHES TO TELL YOU ABOUT SEXUAL ASSAULT OR ABUSE

When a person comes to you to tell you that ou has experienced sexual assault, rape, incest, molestation, or abuse, it’s a scary and intense thing. A lot of people freeze in this situation, even people who have experience with these kinds of conversation. Even (sometimes especially) people who have experienced these things themselves.

Copy and paste this entire address above and it will take you to the full article S.E. Smith has written.  I appreciate that the author has allowed me to reprint this excerpt.  It is wonderfully insightful.  We must help each other acquire the tools in order to heal ourselves and our families.
