What if nobody ever told you that you were allowed to call it what it was?
Men experience sexual assault, domestic violence, exploitation and abuse, and many never say so to anyone. This initiative combines education, peer conversation and navigation for male survivors, including gay, bisexual and trans men, without asking anyone to prove what they went through.
Naming it
Language for experiences men were never given words for.
Believing it
