As a serial advocate and volunteer for victims and survivors of abuse, I oftentimes come across special needs for them. In Part 2, I express some of the populations, the concerns we have for them, and what some of the needs are from supporters. The populations discussed in today's episode are the LBGTQ community, Immigrants/Non-English Speaking, Cultural and Religious Segments, the African American community, and College Students. It is vital to see a physician and a mental health specialists to support you on your road to recovery after a life of abuse and sexual violence. As always I will leave other resources for you and for your loved ones if you are supporting them after a life of abuse. Thank you for listening. We appreciate your support. Much love, peace, light, and healing vibes family!
