Jessie Nieblas, Brittany Hunt, and Kelli Knight of LaFASA discuss the unique challenges that survivors face in the aftermath of a disaster. In light of Hurricane Laura ripping through Louisiana, we understand survivors of sexual assault have the added trauma and PTS that comes into the recovery equation. This is a great conversation that delves into challenges presented by residing in shelters or with family members (who could potentially be the perpetrator), social inequalities, responding to a survivor who discloses an assault during recovery, and never forgetting self-care.
