Taking Back Ourselves' mission is to serve sexual abuse and assault survivors of sexual violence, incest, rape, domestic violence, racially motivated sexual abuse, assault in the workplace, military sexual assault, survivors of religious and clergy abuse, academic and sports related abuse, those assaulted in the performing arts, disabled survivors of sexual assault whose assault is gravely under-reported, survivors of war crimes including rape and trafficking, and trans survivors who often struggle to find a safe space to heal. Taking Back Ourselves supports that purpose by hosting in-person and virtual Events of Healing for survivors of all genders and by offering virtual and in-person Weekends and Days of Recovery for women survivors in venues across the country. These events provide a safe, deep and joyful multi-modal experience and create a powerful community of survivors. We offer deep scholarships and free resources for applicants who do not have the means to travel or participate. When survivors experience community and healing in a safe and an embodied way, then everybody—men, women, children, our planet— are better off.
