🧠 About the Project
Healthcare professionals often don’t receive enough training on how to respond when someone discloses abuse or violence. We're working to change that — and we need your help.
We are speaking with adult survivors to understand:
What it was like to talk (or not talk) about abuse in healthcare settings
What helped — or didn’t help — in those moments
What healthcare providers should know and do differently
🙋 Who Can Participate?
You may be eligible if you:
Are 18 years or older
Have experienced sexual or domestic violence at any point in your life
Are comfortable sharing your experience in a private, respectful conversation
You do not need to have reported the abuse or sought services to participate.
🕊️ What You Can Expect
A confidential interview (about 30–60 minutes)
Done in a way that works for you — by phone, online, or in person
You can skip any question or stop at any time
You’ll receive a $50 gift card as a thank you for your time
