Silent Voices

"There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness." Josh Billings (1818 - 1885) Recent statistics show that rape and sexual assault are crimes in which victims remain silent, (for many reasons) and are therefore not receiving the necessary support to overcome such a violent crime. My name is Patricia. I was a victim of rape at the age of 16. Just like many of you viewers reading my website, I too remained silent. But today I am making my voice heard. Unfortunately, justice was never served, but I have the knowledge to help other survivors receive their justice and make their voice heard. I am currently developing an organization designed to help survivors of rape and sexual assault as well as curb this violent crime.   I would like to hear from every visitor, (whether you yourself are a survivor or you know someone that has survived this crime). I am going to change the system so future victims of violent crimes will report these crimes. I have been in your position and would like to hear your story, any suggestions, or to chat.

As many as 1 in 6 boys will be sexually assaulted by the age of 16.
