Who Belongs to Survivorship?
Members of survivorship come from all parts of the world, with the majority of members living in the United States and Canada. Survivors, their partners, and professionals (therapists, clergy, activists) all belong. We also have some members who are questioning whether they have been ritualistically abused and are seeking more information. What Kinds of Support and Education Do We Offer? We have two kinds of newsletters. The Notes contain short articles about dealing with the after-effects of ritualistic abuse and news about Survivorship. There is also a calendar of events and notices of new books, web sites, projects, and RA-related news. Survivorship is more literary. It contains articles, first person stories, poetry, art work, and book and movie reviews. We offer one-day workshops periodically through out the year and short-term support groups for survivors. Speakers are available for trainings at hotlines, shelters, medical and nursing school, churches, and law enforcemen agencies
