To all survivors, whether or not you report or speak about your sexual assault:
We see you. We hear you. We believe you. Your experience & your reaction to it are valid.
Disclosing is YOUR choice, & we will never stop fighting for you.

What if we were to shift the conversation to, ‘What was the impact that it had on you?’
What would you say? #MeToo#MeTooImpact
