As a survivor of severe and traumatic child abuse of every type, I feel that I am one of the best advocates to speak out against abuse in every form. I do this in my speaking, in my books, and in every other avenue that is opened to me. It is my goal to use my talents to raise awareness so that people will know the epidemic that is running rampant in our country and will be moved to action so that not one more child or adult needs to enter the never ending nightmare of abuse.
