Our nonprofit organization is dedicated to improving the lives of those families that have experienced sexual assault. Our founder is a parent of a survivor, and went looking for a group similar to this, and couldn't find one. Seeing a need, he decided to start his own support group.
At Parents of Survivors of Sexual Assault (POSSA), our mission is to provide resources and support from one family to another to help assist families to restore some balance and order in their lives.
We are a new non-profit organization looking to provide support and services to survivors, parents and families. Beyond support services we aspire to provide scholarships and grants n the future.
1 in 3 women and 3% of all men have been sexually assaulted. While there are programs to help them. There is nothing for the parents, who struggle with the stigma.
We were founded by a father that couldn't find a support group, so he started his own.
We are planning our first support group meeting on April 8th,2024 at Trinity Lutheran Church in State College, PA.
