2018 Healing Award Recipient ~ Empower Survivors, LLC

EmpowerSurvivors is a peer led 501c3 charitable non-profit organization based in Stillwater, MN, and run and operated by adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse and trauma. Their mission is to reduce the silence and stigma of childhood sexual abuse by supporting survivors on their healing journeys and educating communities to reduce adverse childhood experiences, which negatively impact not only survivors but their families, society, and institutions.

These programs aid in the survivor recovery process, reduce isolation, provide skills to help manage lives in the community and promote health and well-being.
