SOAR Member Testimonials
"Staying silent in the face
of behaviors that normalize
violence against women
damages so much. We need
to speak out—around our
children, in our churches,
in our workplaces. Let’s heal
ourselves and our communities."
Testifying before our state
legislators has been very
rewarding. Many are eager
to learn about our experiences
as survivors, and some have
never before heard a survivor's
story first-hand. Our voices are
necessary to create change."
Working with the media
through SOAR has empowered
me to become more confident,
grow into a strong leader, and
even helped me attain a management
position at my job. I am a great
manager because of the skills
I've learned through SOAR."
