Laalteyn Details
Laalteyn is a journal of recovery from childhood abuse and learning to dance in the rain.The purpose of Laalteyn.com, which is powered by Bytes For All, Pakistan, is to create a strong, reliable, online support network for Pakistan-based survivors of childhood abuse. We believe that survivors, experiencing everyday life, and understanding the recovery process from within, are critical to and are most capable of charting their paths to recovery, and inventing and/or innovating sustainable solutions for a brighter future for themselves and their societies.The desire to create and sustain Laalteyn.com is driven by the fact that not only is Pakistani society unaware of the epidemic prevalence and insidious, long-lasting effects of childhood abuse, there is also no peer-support network for survivors in Pakistan. We believe that therapy alone is not enough to propel most survivors of childhood abuse onto the path to recovery. In fact, evidence supports peer-support groups as being just as important. Regardless of how supportive their network of caregivers might be, survivors need to also be with ‘their own': people with similar experiences; other survivors.Through Laalteyn.com, we seek to raise awareness, as well as encourage and support Pakistan-based survivors of childhood abuse in their journey to recovery and their quest to create successful sustainable lives and relationships for themselves and with their loved ones.
