FOR THE WOMEN IN THE PHILIPPINES
If you’re a survivor, or know someone who is, I’m so sorry. You deserve safety, justice, to be heard, and to be believed.
I’m linking Philippine VAWC resources and helplines below. Please save or share this with someone who may need it.
TW: Sexual assault
I will be linking websites below to sexual assault hotlines, donation links, and 24/7 hotlines.
That being said, I cannot sit here with a platform and remain silent. Given everything in the news this past week, I feel a responsibility to speak up. Sexual assault is something 1 in 3 women WORLDWIDE experience in some form. While I am fortunate not to have experienced it myself, I have close friends who have.
To anyone who has survived sexual violence in any form: you are so strong, and I am endlessly proud of your resilience. Please know you are seen, supported, and never alone. I stand with all of you.
