Male Survivors CSA/RAPE: Unpacking The Possibilities of Growth
November 20, 2018 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Event Navigation
Survivors West Yorkshire’s Ben’s Place project is pleased to bring you an opportunity to explore Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) in male survivors of sexual abuse and rape:
The event will showcase a groundbreaking 30 min film from the US:
Male Survivor Stories – The Bristlecone Project
Men who were sexually abused or assaulted may feel isolated and stigmatized by what happened to them.
The truth is that millions of men from around the world have had these experiences.
They are a courageous group who are no longer willing to be silenced by stigma and shame.
“They’re men who confront the past, but who walk forward into the future.”
David Lisak, PhD, Bristlecone Project Founder
Following the film there will be an opportunity for an open discussion around empowering growth opportunities for West Yorkshire male survivors:
- What are the barriers?
- What are the opportunities?
- How do we create real change?
The event is free and open to anyone looking to understand more about male survivors and the work of Survivors West Yorkshire’s Ben’s Place project. Places are limited so please book early: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/male-survivors-csarape-unpacking-the-possibilities-of-growth-tickets-52084331638
