Join Executive Director Jim Hajny as he welcomes a Lucie Bruno. Lucie is the director of the Strength Found program, which provides crucial support to adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA). She is also a peer mentor for the Ethical Peer Support (EPS) training, operating out of Ottawa, Canada.

In this essential discussion, Jim and Lucie address why the topic of CSA remains often "taboo," despite its prevalence and widespread impact on individuals' lifetimes, often leading to mental health issues, substance use, and failed relationships. Lucie shares her passion for peer support and details the successful, peer-led Strength Found program.
