Tomorrow is the last day to file claims against the Diocese of Rochester. There is still time to seek justice – that time is limited, that time is now.
Survivors of child sexual abuse across NY now have until Aug of 2021 to file a claim, but Rochester is different. @RochDiocese Chapter 11 bankruptcy still requires survivors to file abuse claims by Aug 13, 2020. @DandC https://t.co/5DpL0MZPt2
Thousands of survivors have come forward and we know many more will come forward in the months ahead. We are ready to fight for them and hold perpetrators and the institutions that protected them accountable
.@NYGovCuomo signed into law a one-year extension to the “look-back” window provided by the New York Child Victims Act (CVA). Survivors now have until August 14, 2021 to bring a lawsuit. https://t.co/pZQgexVFiD
During these challenging times, it is more important than ever to provide survivors the time and support they need to come forward and speak their truths. #NYCVA#extension
The @saints still have the power to bring more transparency about their engagement with the Archdiocese of New Orleans to survivors. Make the correspondences public. That would be a first step to light and truth. https://t.co/727O2nUnvZ
“We are honored to stand with these survivors in their pursuit of truth and accountability,” said attorney @JeffAndersonJAA . “Until the Diocese disgorges the secrets that it has kept hidden for decades, children remain at peril.”

In filing a case TODAY against Cardinal McCarrick, a courageous survivor has put a spotlight on the over 50 years of sexual abuse and abuse of power by Cardinal McCarrick. https://t.co/1ibemtzanI
Just a reminder that the NY Child Victims Act is the legal path that allowed brave abuse survivors of #HarveyWeinstein and #ghislenemaxwell to come forward. All claims must be filed by Aug 13th.
